Get what you pay for.

The legal profession is stuck in an old and busted model. Attorneys charge for services the same way they have since the 1800s. Attorneys only make money if they are billing you for their time.

The result?

Clients question whether attorneys are more interested in billing – than helping.

Lex Tecnica offers a disruptive alternative. Hire your preferred legal professional as your fractional general counsel, at a reduced rate in exchange for a small piece of equity, and get the benefit of legal expertise without the conflicts of outside counsel.
