Outside & Fractional General Counsel

Outside Counsel for Healthcare & Regulated Businesses

Healthcare practices, clinical laboratories, diagnostic companies, management organizations and other regulated businesses often need recurring legal guidance without an in-house legal department. BOLO offers defined outside- and fractional-counsel engagements involving contracts, operational risk, governance and compliance, with clear written expectations about availability, scope, exclusions and fees before work begins.

Share your organization’s industry, recurring legal needs, and preferred level of counsel involvement; engagements are tailored by agreement.

Three ways to build an ongoing legal relationship.

A monthly outside counsel arrangement should make responsibilities predictable without turning every business issue into a new emergency. BOLO offers Foundation, Growth and Strategic models, each customized after a review of the client’s operation.

Monthly capacity, service exclusions, review times, cancellation and any expanded litigation or agency response are defined in writing before engagement.

Legal support should reduce recurring business friction.

Businesses do not need a full-time legal department to identify recurring contract, compliance, staffing and vendor questions. They do need a defined route for deciding what requires counsel.

  • Identify the decisions that repeatedly delay operations, contracts or regulatory responses.
  • Discuss a scope for recurring advice, escalation rules, availability, what is excluded and how additional work is billed.
  • Set expectations and funding in writing before the relationship begins. Ongoing counsel cannot guarantee compliance or prevent every dispute.

Please provide only general, nonconfidential information in a first inquiry. Submitting a request does not itself establish an attorney-client relationship.

Counsel Informed by Operating Real Organizations

Brian O’Loughlin has dealt firsthand with limited budgets, staffing challenges, quality programs, regulatory demands, and vendor relationships. His nursing, healthcare administration, MBA and management education provide a practical lens for advising business leaders who must make decisions under competing operational pressures.

BOLO’s outside-counsel work is designed to connect legal risk with how an organization actually functions: contracts, people, processes, documentation, regulatory requirements, and the cost of disruption. Engagement scope, fees, and availability are specified in writing.
