Experienced Annapolis Lawyers Serving as Outside General Counsel
Let's face it: Virtually every business needs its own attorney. Not the attorney you call and say, "I've got a problem," but a trusted advisor who understands each aspect of your business, who can anticipate problems, and proactively minimize risk and maximize opportunities. However, few growing companies can afford the expense of an in-house general counsel — until now.
Bernstein & Feldman, P.A., is pleased to announce our new My General Counsel (MGC) Program. For a fixed monthly fee, a business can have unlimited access to our experienced general counsel attorneys. This means no worrying that a phone call will result in a bill or that a review of an agreement will lead to an additional charge.
Our Highly Experienced Legal Counsel
Most importantly, the lawyers we have dedicated to this program are the most highly qualified you will encounter in our area. Both have served as General Counsel or Corporate Counsel for public and large private companies and have the breadth of knowledge and experience that is required to handle complex and sophisticated business transactions.
- Attorney John F. Woods is a graduate of Harvard College and Harvard Law School and has served as General Counsel for a Maryland headquartered public company. He has also been a partner at a major Washington, D.C. law firm and has represented numerous major corporations in a broad spectrum of corporate transactions.
- Attorney Susan A. Winchurch is the former corporate counsel for Ritz Camera and also served in the General Counsel's office at Giant Food. She has also worked in private practice representing real estate purchasers, sellers, developers, landlords, and commercial tenants.
Both John and Susan are dedicated to learning about your business and gaining the trust of your clients. They are backed by the principals of our firm, Alan W. Bernstein and Jerome I. Feldman, who bring their business knowledge and expertise to the program.
Increasing Efficiency While Reducing Legal Risk
Through this MGC Program, our firm helps clients review their corporate documents, procedures, employee handbooks, intellectual property and business agreements. We can also help your business become more efficient and reduce the legal risk in your operations.
The number of clients that we will be initially accepting into the program is limited. Please call or contact us online to discuss how MGC can meet your legal needs at an affordable and predictable cost.
*All new engagements will include an initial corporate legal audit that is normally a separate engagement. Certain restrictions apply per each individual engagement.
