General Outside Counsel Services Las Vegas

A dedicated business attorney available when you need her — without the overhead of a full-time hire.

Every growing business needs reliable legal guidance on an ongoing basis — from reviewing contracts and advising on compliance to navigating employment issues and managing risk. But not every business needs or can afford a full-time in-house attorney.

The Sookiassian Firm provides outside general counsel services for small and mid-sized businesses in Las Vegas and throughout Nevada. Think of it as having a dedicated business attorney available when you need her — without the salary, benefits, and overhead of a full-time hire.

Attorney Jaklin Sookiassian serves as a strategic legal partner for business owners who want sophisticated legal guidance at a fraction of the cost of in-house counsel. We get to know your business, your industry, and your goals — and we are available when issues arise.

Who Benefits?

Startups and Early-Stage Companies

Expert legal support on a flexible basis when you can't justify a full-time hire.

Small and Mid-Sized Businesses

As complexity grows, legal needs increase. An outside GC handles them proactively.

Businesses in Transition

Expanding, restructuring, raising capital, or preparing for a sale? Strategic legal support during critical phases.

Companies with Regular but Not Daily Legal Needs

If you need a lawyer regularly for contracts, compliance, and guidance — but not every day — this is the most cost-effective arrangement.

The Sookiassian Firm Difference

Unlike a general practice attorney who handles whatever walks in the door, we bring a corporate finance and transactional background to outside counsel engagements. Jaklin's experience at Fried Frank means your business gets the kind of strategic, detail-oriented legal thinking typically reserved for large companies with big legal budgets.

We also practice personal injury law, which means we can advise on risk management and liability exposure from a perspective that most business attorneys lack.
