Give legal
an owner.
TrueGC is ongoing general counsel for organizations with real legal work and no in-house legal team.
WHEN LEGAL HAS NO INTERNAL OWNER
The legal issues are connected. The people handling them often are not.
An agreement can become a delivery issue. An AI decision can raise privacy and IP questions. A transaction can change governance and compliance obligations at once.
Agreements & Transactions
Agreements, financings, alliances, acquisitions, and restructurings pull several legal workstreams together.
Technology, AI & Data
Data, AI, systems, vendors, and digital products create linked operational and legal choices.
IP & Privacy
Ownership, licensing, data use, and information obligations shape how the organization operates.
Board & Governance
Boards and leaders need clear authority, records, approvals, and decisions.
Regulatory & Compliance
Legal obligations, investigations, reporting, and remediation rarely stay isolated.
One point of responsibility for legal.
We consider how a decision about one contract, policy or board matter affects the rest of your organization.
HOW TRUEGC WORKS
An outside general counsel should do more than wait for assignments.
We handle routine legal work, keep leadership informed and raise legal questions as the business changes.
Counsel who knows your business
Leadership has a senior attorney to call who understands the organization and its priorities. You can raise a question as it arises and get advice in the context of the work already underway.
Legal work that stays on track
Regular meetings keep leadership informed about priorities and progress. We maintain the agreements, records and approval processes covered by your TrueGC arrangement, and keep recurring legal work moving.
Issues raised while there is time to act
We learn what is changing in the business and raise the legal questions it creates. You do not have to identify every issue yourself before bringing it to counsel.
Coordination when a larger matter arises
For a transaction, dispute or other substantial matter, we help identify the work and resources needed. When a specialist is appropriate, we help select and coordinate that counsel while keeping leadership informed.

BUILT FROM INSIDE THE ROLE
Designed around what leadership actually needs from a GC.
Dan Liutikas has worked as outside counsel, General Counsel and Chief Executive. He knows what it is like to give legal advice and to be responsible for acting on it.
That experience helped shape TrueGC. The firm handles routine legal work, advises leadership and coordinates larger matters.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Questions before you start.
Is TrueGC just a block of prepaid legal hours?
No. TrueGC provides ongoing legal support, including calls and emails from agreed leadership contacts, regular review of priorities and the recurring work set out in your agreement.
What happens when something big comes up?
We agree on the work, timing and fees with you before starting. If another lawyer or specialist is needed, we help select and coordinate that counsel and keep leadership informed.
Will you actually raise issues with us, or do we still have to know when to call?
Yes. Thinking ahead is part of the job. We learn the business, stay alert to what is changing, and raise issues that deserve attention while there is still time to address them well.
What if we complete the assessment and decide TrueGC is not right for us?
You keep the assessment and roadmap and can use them however you choose. There is no requirement to continue into an ongoing TrueGC relationship.
