Fast‑growing companies run on speed, innovation, and bold moves. But behind every deal, contract, and transaction lurks one thing that can quietly derail momentum: legal risk.
And legal risks don’t announce themselves, they pile up silently until something breaks:
- A dream customer slips away because you can’t clear their vendor due diligence requirements.
- Your valuation takes a hit because your contracts are a patchwork of inconsistent terms that don’t fully protect your IP or revenue.
- Your team burns out as “scrappy” employees spend hours fielding ad‑hoc legal questions:
“Can we make this NDA change before the meeting?”
“Do we need to amend this contract for the new AI feature?”
“Will we own this consultant’s work product?”
This pressure is even heavier for B2B tech and professional services companies. Whether your revenue is $1k or $100m, you’re expected to meet enterprise‑level legal and compliance standards. But if your legal team is small or nonexistent the daily influx of contracts, questions, and risks can feel impossible to manage. And stretching the budget beyond urgent issues like litigation can seem out of reach.
That’s where fractional legal services change everything.
