Karyn Osinowo Law Offices recognizes that communication between clients and legal counsel is greatly improved when you do not have to worry about the billable hour.  We want our clients to have more security in knowing how much the fee over a certain period will be.  Accordingly, we offer flat fees for many of our services, including but not limited to:

Entity Formation Package

The Entity Formation Package is designed to assist you in selecting the optimal business form for the venture from among a wide range of entity choices, or in structuring a hybrid entity.  The goal is to provide your social enterprise with the best possible legal framework in which to succeed.  Additionally, I will help you think through the pros and cons of establishing a non-profit versus a for-profit organization.  This package includes:

• Review and analysis of your social enterprise’s business idea

The Governance Review Package ensures that you are complying with state and federal reporting requirements and fulfilling your goals and objectives in a manner that adds to the value of the social enterprise and is beneficial to all stakeholders in the long term.  This package includes:

• Due diligence review of corporate governance documents (board meeting minutes, shareholder meeting minutes, and other relevant documents) to assess compliance with federal and state reporting requirements as well as generally recognized best practices;
• Review governance-related policies, including conflicts and ethics;
• Report and recommendations to Executive Director and Board of Directors; and
• Drafting or revising organizational documents based on substantive law and best practices.

Annual Legal Services Package

Need to form a new entity for your business?  Send a letter to a non-paying customer?  Draft a contract?  Review a document?  Help write your business plan?  It’s all included.  The Annual Legal Services Package includes the spectrum of legal services (exclusive of litigation) that your social enterprise will need throughout the year.  Choosing the annual legal services package allows me to anticipate your legal needs and provide you with the strategic legal support you will need on an ongoing basis, along with the added benefit of being able to communicate with you and respond to day-to-day legal issues as the need arises.  This package is offered beginning at $500 per month and is available to a limited number of clients on a first come, first served basis.

If you have any questions about the Annual Legal Services Package and how it would benefit your social enterprise, please contact me to schedule a free consultation.
