HORTON LEGAL STRATEGIES

People going over documents.

We serve as the head of your legal department, ensuring the right people are working on the right things in ways that move you closer to your larger business objectives. Imagine having a written strategy, action plan, and legal spend budget that dovetails with the vision you have for your business. Imagine having training for your team. Imagine having someone else managing legal work across all providers instead of you trying to do that. 

We have one practice area: general counsel services. Our magic is in both what we do and how we do it. 

We serve as the head of your legal matters, or, for some, as the head of part of your legal matters.

This means you can step back from actively managing different firms and attorneys because your fractional general counsel will do the heavy lifting of that.   

We ensure the right people are working on the right things in ways that move you closer to your larger business objectives.

Sometimes you need a specific firm or lawyer for a critical piece. We find them. Sometimes, the right person is not a lawyer and instead a layperson in your business that does it better with training and support. We point this out. 

We show how to allocate resources to legal work to drive the greatest return on investment and effort.

Is it better to spend $50,000 on settling employee lawsuits? Or is it better to purchase an insurance product that shifts the cost of defending and settling claims away from your balance sheet? We have some ideas on that.  

We make sure your deliverables show up when you need it.

Every wonder why that answer to your question, the NDA, those corporate bylaws, that severance agreement, the trademark filing, that licensing agreement seem to take so long to get? We know why, and we can fix that for you.
