Welcome to Alliance Legal Services. My name is Katherine Lofft, and I am the principal of Alliance Legal. I specialize in providing outsourced, “corporate” counsel services to small and medium-sized companies. I also represent individual business owners and investors, and offer support for understaffed or overworked corporate law departments.
Alliance Legal is not your typical law firm. Among other things, it offers “one stop shopping” for companies that cannot afford to hire their own in-house attorney or to engage a large, diversified large firm. My goal is to work closely with you and get to know your business intimately, so as to act as the first line of defense for most legal issues.
Imagine being able to call one lawyer – a person who is integrated with and already understands your business – for assistance with matters ranging from organizing a subsidiary to negotiating an office lease, hiring employees, drafting a sales contract, developing terms for a new Web site or acquiring a business. Few other individual attorneys are able to provide quality services across the same range of practice specialties.
This does not mean that I can, or will, directly handle every matter. Just as an in-house attorney would, I evaluate issues as they arise. I address those I believe I can effectively, including where time may be of the essence. Others, I may refer to outside counsel – often, counsel that I have helped engage and am responsible for managing.
As a one-attorney firm, Alliance Legal also has very low overhead. You benefit from this in the form of low hourly rates and savings in other areas. My hourly rate is competitive with those charged by area attorneys with comparable experience. I also have a lot of flexibility in structuring alternative billing arrangements, and will gladly work on retainer or implement project- or task-based billing at your request.
You will not be asked to reimburse me for many common out-of-pocket expenses, including phone calls, fax service, postage and photocopying (unless extraordinary and approved in advance). I am personally responsible for preparing each and every client invoice I send, and am accountable to you for the contents.
I offer new clients a no-cost, no-obligation consultation.* During this consultation, I will help you identify and define your needs and structure a service/pricing package tailored to you. To schedule a no-cost, no-obligation consultation, please contact me.
* - Limited to 2 hours.
