About Light Legal
Light Legal PLLC provides light-weight, light-touch, light-speed legal services to startups and growing companies. We have cut the fat out of the law firm model to provide premium, AI-supported "fractional general counsel" at about half the price of BigLaw.
In short, we are a law firm that puts the founder's mindset at the heart of how we provide legal services.
Light Legal's law-firm model is:
(1) Light weight - we slash the bloated overhead costs from the traditional law-firm so that we can offer an approximate 50% reduction in hour hourly rates relative to BigLaw; (
2) Light touch - we employe the 80/20 Rule to focus most on the 20% of issues that have 80% of the importance to clients to provide additional cost and speed efficiencies;
(3) Light-speed - we work urgently to provide deliverables within 24-48 hours knowing that this is critical to a startups success.
We then bring top-quality lawyers from top schools and firms and multiply that by an intelligent use of the best AI legal tools on the market. The result is the delivery of legal services with a founder's mindset that truly maximizes value for clients.
