  ENJOY THE BENEFITS OF IN-HOUSE COUNSEL,

      WITHOUT THE IN-HOUSE COUNSEL COSTS


            Some companies hire "in house” counsel to have on staff full time, regardless of how much they use that attorney’s services. The benefit, of course, is full time access to an attorney at a moments notice with a broad base of knowledge regarding business law.  Unfortunately, most companies do not have the budget for such a position.  When a problem arises, they are forced to find an attorney that they may or may not be familiar with.

            The Law Offices of Peter T. Stavropoulos helps resolve this dilemma.  It gives you the advantages of in-house counsel, without the burden of paying an in house salary.  Most client phone calls are returned the same day, and if not same day very shortly thereafter.  Clients receive the benefit of sound legal advice when they need it, just as if they had hired in house counsel.  Clients pay on a time and effort basis instead of having to pay a high annual salary (plus benefits) to an in-house attorney.

 

            The Law Offices of Peter T. Stavropoulos is dedicated to serving individuals and small to medium businesses.  The firm’s goal is to give clients sound legal and practical advice to help businesses with their day to day legal issues.
