Private Advisory. Depth
Direct, private,
named.
Senior counsel held by a single named principal at the firm.
The advisory engagement is the smallest unit of work the firm offers. One principal at the firm. One principal at the client. One channel. Senior counsel without intermediaries.
The Shape
One principal
to one principal.
Advisory engagements are held directly. The principal at the client speaks with a named principal at the firm. There is no account team. There is no coordinator. The relationship is a single line, not a hierarchy.
The Substance
Pre-decision.
Pre-press.
The firm is engaged before decisions are made and before statements are issued. The work is consultative, not corrective. The principal arrives at decisions with the doctrine already filtered through. The press cycle that follows is the result, not the work.
01
Pre-decision
Counsel held before a position is taken.
02
Pre-press
Counsel held before a statement is issued.
03
Pre-hire
Counsel held before a hire reframes the architecture.
04
Pre-event
Counsel held before an event the principal attends.
The Cadence
On call.
On retainer.
Advisory is on retainer, available on call. The principal at the firm is reachable within the channel the engagement defines, on the timeline the situation requires. Most engagements involve weekly contact. Some involve daily contact. None involve hours.
Confidential Inquiry
Engagements are by referral and invitation only.
If a trusted source has introduced you to the firm, or if you believe your situation warrants direct contact, a senior principal will reply within forty-eight hours.
