Standing legal counsel
A standing legal counsel refers to a lawyer who, in accordance with the law, accepts the engagement of companies, enterprises, government agencies, natural persons, or other legal persons and organizations to provide multi-faceted legal services to the engaging party using their legal expertise and skills. Standing legal counsel is typically a lawyer; others may not serve as legal counsel.
Main Responsibilities and Scope of Work of Standing Legal Counsel
The main responsibilities of standing legal counsel include:
Providing legal consultation: Providing oral or written legal opinions to the engaging party.
Contract management: Reviewing and revising contracts, participating in contract negotiations.
Decision support: Providing legal opinions and conducting legal analysis and argumentation for the engaging party's business management decisions.
Dispute resolution: Participating in the handling of civil, economic, administrative disputes, or other major disputes that have not yet developed into litigation or arbitration.
Legal affairs agency: Prioritizing acceptance of engagements from the engaging party to act as an agent in mediation, arbitration, or litigation of various disputes, including civil, economic, and administrative cases.
Differences Between Standing Legal Counsel and Legal Counsel
Standing legal counsel differs from general legal counsel. Standing legal counsel establishes a long-term, stable business relationship with the engaging party (with a term of at least one year), providing continuous legal services. General legal counsel, however, may only provide services for a single lawsuit or legal matter; once the matter is concluded, the service generally ends.
