Service Description

Modern businesses face constant legal demands—often without the internal resources or time to deal with them effectively. That’s where Ignacio Vera’s legal counsel model comes in.

Offered as a retainer service or per project-based, Ignacio provides high-level legal guidance that functions like having your own in-house counsel—without the cost, delays, or detachment of a traditional law firm. All services are delivered remotely, with guaranteed responsiveness, legal clarity, and deep business understanding.

Here’s what’s included:

Corporate Governance & Entity Management

Avoid costly mistakes and legal exposure by keeping your company structure, board formalities, and corporate records in check. Ignacio ensures your business stays compliant, organized, and legally sound—so you can focus on growth instead of red tape.

Contract Drafting, Review, and Negotiation

Contracts should protect your interests—not create hidden risks. Ignacio drafts and negotiates contracts that are clear, fair, and enforceable, helping you close deals faster and with confidence, while avoiding vague terms and future disputes.

Regulatory Compliance

Regulations are constantly evolving—and failing to comply can be expensive. Ignacio helps your business stay ahead of changing laws in privacy, sustainability, financial tech, and international operations, so you avoid penalties, build trust with stakeholders and open access to capital markets.

Employment Law Support

Managing employees without legal guidance is risky. From onboarding to terminations, Ignacio helps you navigate labor laws, draft compliant policies, and resolve internal issues before they escalate—protecting both your company and your team.

Intellectual Property Protection

Your ideas and creations are valuable—don’t leave them unprotected. Ignacio ensures your trademarks, copyrights, and proprietary assets are legally secured, so your competitive edge stays yours.

Risk Mitigation & Internal Policy Design

Legal problems often stem from unclear or missing internal processes. Ignacio designs practical policies and procedures that minimize liability and help your team operate with legal clarity and consistency.

Strategic Legal Advice for M&A and Joint Ventures

Major transactions come with high stakes. Ignacio advises you through mergers, acquisitions, and partnerships—helping you spot red flags early, structure deals properly, and negotiate terms that serve your long-term goals.

Procurement Legal Support

Supply deals, government contracts, or vendor relationships can quickly become legal headaches without proper oversight. Ignacio supports your procurement process with contract vetting, negotiation, and compliance to reduce risk and ensure favorable terms.

Coordination with External Counsel (Litigation)

When disputes arise, Ignacio does not litigate but handpicks the most cost-efficient litigation counsel or team, and coordinates with itto ensure your business is represented strategically. Because Ignacio is not licensed in every jurisdiction, this approach also guarantees local bar compliance. He acts as your internal advocate—translating legal complexities into business language and keeping everything aligned with your budget and interests.

YOUR BEST OPTION

WHO I AM

Legal issues don’t wait—but traditional law firms do.

If your business needs ongoing legal support but hiring a full-time attorney isn’t viable, and dealing with slow, expensive firms feels like a constant frustration, there’s a better way.

I help business leaders who need immediate, practical legal guidance—without inflated hourly rates, drawn-out processes, or lawyers who don’t understand their business. Although I am not licensed in every jurisdiction, I coordinate with appropriately licensed counsel for any matter requiring local bar admission, ensuring full compliance with regulations.

FAQ´s

Not at all. When you work with Ignacio, you’re not outsourcing legal work—you’re bringing in a strategic partner who operates as part of your internal team. This means deeper familiarity with your business, faster decision-making, and tailored advice that’s aligned with your day-to-day operations. Unlike traditional firms, there’s no learning curve or constant reintroductions—just consistent, embedded support.

Primarily small to mid-sized businesses across the U.S. and Canada—especially those that are scaling, entering new markets, restructuring, or simply navigating frequent legal needs without the budget or need for a full-time in-house counsel. With proven experience in highly regulated sectors and high-tech ventures, Ignacio’s service is ideal for all kinds of companies that want high-level legal guidance without the overhead.

Ignacio works on a monthly flat-rate retainer (and occasionally on a per-project basis) tailored to your specific needs. For matters requiring a licensed practitioner in your jurisdiction, local counsel fees are either integrated or billed separately, ensuring you have a single point of contact. There are no hidden fees, no hourly billing, and no surprises. This model provides cost certainty, encourages ongoing consultation, and ensures that your legal priorities are handled proactively—not only when the budget allows.

Absolutely. When litigation or jurisdiction-specific filings are required, Ignacio works directly with your external or local counsel to ensure a cohesive legal strategy. He acts as the point of contact, managing communication and making sure your business is represented consistently and effectively.

In one word: alignment. With Ignacio, you get direct access to senior-level expertise without layers of associates or inflated rates. You don’t wait days for answers or worry about billable hours. He offers responsive, business-focused legal guidance from someone who actually knows your company—something Big Law often struggles to deliver.
