GMP represents and counsels many small to medium-sized businesses large enough to need regular legal counsel, but not in need of a general counsel on staff. Outside general counsel services are provided on an as-needed basis and include counseling on HR matters, contract review and negotiation, lease reviews, and other legal matters. GMP also provides general counsel services to boards of directors when navigating internal issues regarding bylaws and their respective articles.
