General Counsel for Florida Businesses
Some businesses hire in-house attorneys to manage their corporate legal matters. Although that may be a practical solution for some companies, many businesses do not have the constant need or financial resources to make having a general counsel a sensible option.
Because of his diverse experience, John Gillespie has been engaged by several local companies to act as outside general counsel. The Gillespie Law Firm meets the needs of those businesses, coordinating closely with management to deal with the wide array of issues that confront today's businesses in our complicated commercial environment.
