How the General Counsel works in a meeting
The General Counsel explains what the law and common practice say, which risks matter at your stage and which can wait. The answer separates what you can handle yourself from what needs a qualified lawyer in your jurisdiction.
This is general guidance, not legal advice for your specific case: check the final wording of anything you sign with a lawyer. In the discussion, the General Counsel often works with the Head of Fundraising and the CISO.
