Transcript of VLP TURNS 42! · 2016. 9. 7. · • Pillsbury Winthrop, Goodsill, Vantage Counsel CHRIS LA CHANCE...
Virtual Law Partners started business with 8 attorneys a year ago. We
now have 42 and are adding 2 – 3 new attorneys per month. In this
difficult economic environment, we are thriving, because our clients
recognize the superior value and experience we provide.
Our lawyers all have outstanding academic and work backgrounds
and an average of 10 to 15 years of experience. By not having
expensive offices or a large administrative staff, we’ve taken 50% out
of the cost of traditional legal services without sacrificing quality. We
pass on our savings to our clients through substantially lower rates or
flat fee arrangements.
VLP helps domestic and international clients with incorporations,
financings, mergers and spin-outs, licensing and contracts, patent and
trademark prosecutions and acquisitions, due diligence services, SEC
compliance work, commercial lending, tax and other legal matters.
The next time you need legal help, contact one of our attorneys, or email
Craig Johnson, our CEO, at [email protected].
We look forward to serving you!
