Promethean Legal Services is a legal consulting firm that has been formed to meet the needs of businesses that have not yet reached the size where it makes financial sense to hire their first in-house attorney. Such businesses face the choice of sending their legal work to a law firm (and paying rates that reflect the overhead of a traditional law firm) or going without legal review (which means taking on risk). Promethean has been formed to give these businesses a third (and better) option that allows clients to purchase the same kind of quality legal services that an in-house corporate attorney would provide from experienced attorneys on an hourly or daily basis. This arrangement permits the business to get access to high-quality and responsive legal advice without taking on fixed overhead.
