Rick Mortensen, Attorney at Law

Elite legal services from an in-house perspective

Are you a business with regular legal needs you’re not quite ready to hire an in-house attorney to address?  Are you a general counsel seeking extra help without adding to your payroll? Do you need a lawyer with the experience and perspective to distinguish a small risk from one that could threaten your company, one who will solve your problems instead of just spotting them? Let me help. I’ve spent most of my 20-year career solving problems as an in-house attorney for companies ranging from start-ups to multi-national, public corporations. I can give you immediate help with a contract or legal issue, and I can offer you more permanent solutions by creating standard agreements, playbooks, flowcharts, and employee trainings. As an in-house attorney, I learned to prioritize risks and find proportional, affordable solutions that ultimately add value to the business.

Additionally, my business model and low overhead allow me to provide my services at a low, predictable cost. Not only is my hourly rate lower than big firm attorneys’, but in addition to hourly work, I offer many services for a flat fee, including a model where regular clients pay me a monthly fee to devote 1-3 days per week to their business, at their offices if they choose, or remotely from mine. Reach out to inquire about fees and availability.
