Sound, strategic legal direction is critical for sustainable growth of a business. Mid-sized corporates often cannot afford a full-time GC or hire top law firms. Thus, tracking and decoding fast-changing, multifarious and complex legal requirements can get very difficult for MSMEs. The Global GC supports such companies by making high-quality legal services affordable. It also works with local companies operating or expanding in expensive global markets or vice-versa. In addition, it collaborates with GCs who wish to benchmark global best practices, outsource projects or train/elevate their in-house teams.
Commenting on the launch, Surabhi Agarwal, Founder, The Global GC said, "In my experience affordable quality is pretty hard to find.

Having been a trusted legal advisor and business partner to industry leaders for over two decades, with deep cross border experience, Surabhi is leading The Global GC to become the go-to firm for businesses with big aspirations who don't have a seasoned full-time GC.
