The Challenge - The In-House Counsel Chasm

You’ve reached the In-House Counsel Chasm.

You’ve successfully navigated the uncertainties of the startup phase. Now, growth presents a new class of challenges.

Your leadership team’s focus is fractured by a constant flow of contracts, HR issues, and compliance demands. Your sales cycle is slowed by legal reviews. You’re making high-stakes decisions without the immediate, context-aware counsel you need to move with confidence.

You know the ad-hoc legal advice that got you here is no longer sufficient. Yet the cost and commitment of a full-time, experienced General Counsel—a fully-loaded annual investment—feels premature.

This is a critical inflection point faced by nearly every successful scaling company. It’s a sign of your success, but it’s also where significant value can be lost.

 

The Solution - An Embedded Strategic Partner

Our model is not outsourced law. It is embedded counsel.

The Makkobilli Law Firm LLP’s Strategic Outside General Counsel (OGC) service was designed specifically to bridge this chasm. We integrate a senior legal executive into your operational rhythm, providing the strategic horsepower of an in-house counsel with the flexibility of a subscription.

We don’t just answer legal questions. We learn your business, your risk appetite, and your strategic objectives. We then deliver proactive, commercially-minded counsel that enables, rather than hinders, your growth.

 

The Process - How We Integrate
