External general counsel

A senior lawyer embedded in your company, without the cost of a legal department of your own. A service provided as a member of C/suite.

Many companies already generate enough legal work to need constant senior judgment, but not enough to create a department of their own. The external general counsel fills that space: a lawyer who knows the business, attends the meetings that matter and responds as if part of the team.

How we can help

  • Day to day legal advice: contracts and relations with shareholders, directors and third parties.
  • Support for the board and for management in major decisions.
  • Coordination of the company’s other advisers, in Spain and abroad, under a single strategy.
  • Prevention: spotting risks before they become a problem.

Member of C/suite

Pablo Gómez-Acebo Calonje provides this service as a member of C/suite. When the company needs it, the legal function works alongside other external executives in the network.
