What does a fractional general counsel do in an M&A deal?

A fractional general counsel runs the deal from the company's side: letters of intent, due diligence, purchase agreements, merger agreements, and disclosure schedules. GC Bench acts as a facilitator who keeps the deal moving and brings in specialist firms only when they are genuinely needed, billed hourly or as a flat monthly fee.

What this covers

  1. (a)

    Letters of intent and diligence

    Early stage

    Letters of intent and due diligence, handled so the deal keeps moving.

  2. (b)

    Purchase and merger agreements

    The documents

    Purchase agreements, merger agreements, and disclosure schedules, negotiated with terms you actually understand.

  3. (c)

    Specialists, coordinated

    Outside firms

    Specialists still handle specialist work. Your GC decides when to bring them in, briefs them properly, and keeps the engagement efficient.

How it starts

Every engagement starts the same way.

A thirty minute intro call: a direct conversation about your business, your goals, and your legal priorities. From there the engagement is scoped to your volume and risk, and billed hourly or as a flat monthly fee. Tailored to your budget. No surprises. Read more about how an engagement works.
