Beat the clock: 6 smart ways startups can use lawyers effectively

Legal firms can charge startups anywhere from $175 to $500 per hour, and the fee structures aren’t always straightforward.

One founder who racked up $150,000 in legal costs in a single quarter was forced to explain the expense to a team of investors that included angel Marjorie Radlo-Zandi.

TechCrunch+ is our membership program that helps founders and startup teams get ahead of the pack. You can sign up here. Use code "DC" for a 15% discount on an annual subscription.
