Advisory

Outside General Counsel & Senior Legal Advisor

Not every risk event should become a lawsuit.
But every risk event requires judgment.

Pacini Law serves as outside general counsel and senior legal advisor to growth companies navigating complex operational, transactional, employment, and regulatory risk.

This role is not about activity.  It is about positioning.

Pacini Law is often engaged before disputes harden — when escalation is still optional and leverage can still be shaped.

The objective:

  • Control risk early

  • Preserve leverage

  • Align legal strategy with business realities

And when litigation becomes unavoidable — lead it decisively.

Engagements may be structured as ongoing advisory relationships or matter-specific intervention.

What the Advisory Role Includes

Pacini Law advises founders, executives boards, and in-house legal teams on:

  • Early dispute assessment

  • Executive and board-level risk guidance

  • Contract structuring and enforcement positioning

  • Workforce litigation exposure and agency risk assessment

  • Transaction-adjacent risk, governance exposure, and post-closing enforcement positioning

Judgment comes first.

Activity follows only where it creates advantage.

Enterprise Agreements

The agreements that run the business also define its risk.

Pacini Law advises on and structures enterprise agreements with enforcement, litigation, and regulatory consequences in mind, including:

  • Master services agreements (MSAs)

  • Joint ventures and strategic partnerships

  • Supplier and manufacturer agreements

  • Distribution and referral agreements

  • Licensing and platform terms

  • Independent contractor classification and workforce structure

Agreements are evaluated for leverage, durability, and exit – not just velocity.

Modern Risk Assessment

Enterprise agreements and workforce structures are evaluated using advanced research platforms to indemnity exposure, termination leverage, regulatory risk, and enforcement vulnerabilities. 

Technology accelerates analysis.  Judgment determines outcomes.

When friction emerges,
early positioning matters.

Pre-Dispute Intervention

Pacini Law is frequently engaged before litigation begins — to shape leverage, manage exposure, and determine whether escalation should be controlled or forced.

Outside general counsel relationships are structured for responsiveness, clarity, and senior access.
