    I am continuing my transactional business practice on my own. Corporate "In-House" counsel is an invaluable resource for a company. They deal with the day-to-day legal issues of running the company and serve as the line of prevention when it comes to making business decisions that may have legal consequences against the company. Businesses that don't have "in-house" counsel deal with these same business/legal issues. As a business owner, you need an experienced business lawyer you can call on to handle these business/legal issues. That is why I developed my General Counsel practice with the goal of providing business clients with critical corporate legal services replicating, as much as possible, the methods, approach, and style of an "in-house" law department.

    The Out-House General Counsel blog was developed to educate small business owners and lawyers who may counsel them about the importance of building a relationship with a good business attorney to perform "Out-House" General Counsel services for their business. It has been cited by several online legal commentators and is now featured on the American Bar Association Journal website. You can check it out at www.outhousegeneralcounsel.com.I also founded the Personal Family General Counsel blog to bring back the personal family lawyer of back in the day. It is important for families to develop a relationship with a lawyer who can provide them with trusted counsel regarding every day legal issues that all families face.
