From Crisis to Opportunity: How Flexible Legal Talent Supported a VC Firm's Real Estate Challenge When a VC firm lost their in-house real estate counsel, they faced a critical challenge managing 100+ office leases across 8 portfolio companies. Here's how strategic legal talent deployment transformed their operations: The numbers tell the story: • 8-10 lease renewals/closures processed weekly • Portfolio spanning 4 core industries • 100+ office leases managed nationwide Beyond just legal review, our attorney became a true business partner - negotiating construction contracts, handling landlord disputes, and managing defaults while keeping deals moving forward. The key differentiator? In-house experience combined with practical business acumen allowed for seamless integration with the existing team. No learning curve, no delays, just results. This is what modern legal solutions look like: agile, efficient, and business-focused. Facing similar commercial real estate challenges?
