How we work

Your Legal Counsel provides access to a dedicated skilled and competent legal professional at a fraction of the price of a typical law-firm equivalent, and without the commitment of employing an in-house lawyer.

With Your Legal Counsel, an organisation can customise the support it receives – it can choose the hours per week and the period of time for which that legal support is required. Engaged on a retainer basis, cost clarity and certainty will be clear at the outset, with the option of being able to flex-up hours (capacity depending) as required.
