Lawyering with a Purpose
At Vantage Counsel, we start with your business objectives and risk tolerance, and then determine how to get there with the greatest efficiency and least cost. We also look for ways to help our clients beyond legal services, including introductions to prospective partners, investors and employees, and focus on our clients' success and not on how much legal work we can extract from the situation.
We do not believe in charging our clients for learning what we should know. We invest our own time gaining expertise to assist our clients, including development of forms that will reduce the time to complete drafts, learning about applicable laws including Delaware business formations laws, and building a network of business people and lawyers who may be helpful to our clients. We do not charge for making connections and provided value that does not constitute legal work. In short, we, want our clients to be successful because that will make us more successful.
We have been recognized by Best Lawyers, Chambers and Partners and SuperLawyers for our legal work.
Let's Talk . . .
We do not charge for an initial meeting to get to know you and your legal needs. We enjoy meeting people and learning about their businesses.
