Some founders treat Legal like a 2 AM text.
Something breaks. Someone panics.
Suddenly it’s: “You up?”
That’s not a relationship.
Your company has layers. History. Blind spots. Mood swings.
And a few questionable choices from 2021 that everyone pretends didn’t happen, but make for great stories.
If you only call Legal when things are exploding, the message is, “I like you, but let’s keep this casual.” And somehow, you still expect fireworks.
But even the sharpest outside counsel can’t protect a business they don’t actually know.
This is why our fractional in-house counsel model works.
It is not outsourcing.
It is commitment with context.
It is someone close enough to see the real deal. The product call that gives “run away” energy, the contract trend that kills the match, and the governance miss that leads to a full breakup later.
If you are ready to stop crisis dating your legal function, we are here.
Unified Law brings fractional GCs with swipe-right résumés and real operator instincts.
We plug in fast. We learn your business. We build the systems your next stage demands.
If you want legal that moves with you instead of against you, let’s talk. DM any one of our GCs to learn more.
