Every business, small or large, has potential sources of liability that can turn into full-blown legal problems. Both Federal and State laws impose a myriad of obligations that are difficult to navigate. As a result, some businesses bury their heads in the sand hoping the problems will go away because hiring a lawyer is expensive. But this can be a costly gamble, especially if just one small issue escalates into a huge legal problem.

Legal counsel is paramount to avoiding these issues or finding positive and costs effective solutions. However, the legal counsel needed may not be needed daily and only periodically. Also, some businesses are reluctant to retain general counsel because they fear the unpredictability of law firm hourly billing. Or you may delay hiring an attorney until you have a full-blown problem. Unfortunately, this can be the most expensive and risky way to address legal issues. There's another way to expose and solve legal issues while maintaining complete control of your business budget.
