What is a consulting attorney?
As a consulting attorney, I work almost exclusively for other lawyers on an as-needed basis. I am an extra set of eyes or hands for lawyers who need extra capacity or targeted expertise.
I accept private clients on a limited basis—usually businesses that need someone to handle transactions or function as outside general counsel.
I spent more than a decade representing businesses and municipal agencies at a Nashville-based firm. This means that I am equally prepared to draft motions, handle an acquisition, or cover an entire practice so that an attorney can take parental leave.
Because I have an extensive background in appellate litigation, I also consult on research, drafting, and oral argument strategy for appeals in almost all practice areas.
Here are some of the industries I provide legal work for:
technology and SaaS-based companies
real estate firms
healthcare and related industries
print and digital media
restaurant/hospitality businesses
municipal agencies
non-profits
educational institutions
banks
My LinkedIn profile will give you a good overview of my skill set and hit the highlights on publications, speaking engagements, and honors. But there’s no substitute for conversation. If you think I might be able to help you, give me call.
