Ongoing business enterprises frequently need to confer with counsel on a variety of issues. The need to retain counsel and bring them up to speed on recurring issues can be time consuming and sometimes cost prohibitive.

Tomlinson Advisory represent clients as their general counsel through a monthly fee retainer arrangement. This allows the client to have familiar, knowledgeable counsel to provide legal advice without having to re-engage for each task. As general counsel, Tomlinson is available to its clients for:

  • Contract negotiation and drafting, including leases, licensing agreements, credit facilities, employment agreements and any other type of business contract
  • Developing corporate policies and related training
  • Counseling officers and directors on fiduciary duties
  • Internal investigations
  • Boards of Directors and shareholder meetings – preparation and participation
  • Negotiating fee agreements with other outside counsel firms
  • Executing risk assessments
  • Providing general legal advice and strategy

If the work is beyond the scope of the retainer, Tomlinson can assist in locating appropriate counsel for these services. Work that is outside the scope can be managed by Tomlinson under a separate arrangement or outsourced to a network of experienced, specialized counsel in areas such as complex litigation, tax regulatory work or patent prosecution.

Certain significant transactions like mergers, acquisitions and debt or equity financing require additional arrangements. Tomlinson can handle these transactions for you.
