R/CN Advogados

A legal department, without the department.

For companies signing too many contracts to handle them one at a time, and with no in-house legal team yet.

How it works

  • The same contact, every time

    You speak to the same lawyer throughout. They know the company's history and do not need to be briefed from scratch on every request.

  • A fee per period, not by the hour

    Scope and fee are set before the work starts, with an agreed cap on hours. You know what it costs before you need it.

  • Routine, not only emergencies

    Repeat contracts, minutes, corporate amendments and the everyday questions all sit inside the same arrangement.

  • A way into the other practices

    When a matter becomes a dispute, an investigation or a transaction, it is handled by the relevant practice, with the same contact staying on it.

What it usually covers

  • Repeat contracts

    Supply, services, distribution and confidentiality: review, negotiation and the company's own templates for the cases that recur.

  • Day-to-day corporate work

    Minutes, amendments to the articles, quotaholders coming in and out, and the formalization of decisions already taken.

  • Governance sized to the company

    Policies, approval thresholds and controls proportionate to the operation, not copied from a listed company's manual.

  • Risk triage

    Spotting early on what needs to become a matter of its own, and saying when the issue has outgrown this arrangement.
