Engagement 01
Embedded GC
Two to three days a week. Full ownership of your European legal function.
Learn more →One lawyer. Coordinated across Europe.
Expanding across Europe means your legal surface area multiplies faster than your team. Different employment law. Different contract norms. Different data regimes. We run the European legal function through one relationship.
01The approach
Five law firms is not a legal function.
The default response to European expansion is to instruct a different law firm in every market. You end up with five invoices, five points of contact, five partial views of your business, and no one who sees the whole.
PivotGC takes the opposite approach. One senior lawyer owns your European legal function. When locally admitted advice is needed, we bring in vetted specialists from a curated network — but you never have to manage them. We do.
02Jurisdictions
Where we regularly operate.
For matters in other European jurisdictions, we instruct from a vetted network of specialists.
03Matters
Routinely handled across jurisdictions.
- Commercial contracts
- SaaS terms and master service agreements
- Distribution and agency arrangements
- Reseller and channel partner contracts
- Employment and contractor arrangements
- Data protection (GDPR, FADP)
- Corporate governance
- Fundraising documentation
- M&A support
- IP licensing
Locally admitted advice, when it's actually needed. For matters that specifically require a locally qualified lawyer — court representation, regulated filings, country-specific opinions — we instruct vetted specialists and manage the relationship on your behalf. One point of accountability, whatever the jurisdiction.
