I do think that this idea is optional. For big companies, they do hire them. But then, they can still avail themselves of a lawyer's service by not hiring one. They can just ask for assistance from a law firm. It can be done at any time if they want. It needs a lawyer's service to legalize business transactions with others or to make contract agreements legit.

That depends on the type of business transactions. If it is a transaction which involves a lot of money, the company should employ the service of a lawyer to provide legal advice and prepare the necessary legal documents for relevant parties to sign.

It really depends on how big the company is because there are some companies that already have their legal department already working for the company in case there is any need for them to go into any legal cases.

I knew the fact that big companies usually have legal personnel. It will be very convenient not to hire these people externally. In my view, it is best to have a lawyer outside the company to prevent from having personal interest.

The best thing is to have lawyers within the company. In this way, we can able to secure all the essential documents. We cannot be sure if their will be leakages of these information if hiring lawyers outside the company.

I would actually say that the lawyer who is already working for that the company is doing the job to protect the interest of the company, so I don't think he will be having any kind of mixed loyalty.

It might not really mean keeping a lawyer as part of your everyday staff. You can have a legal adviser that you contract to pay periodically who would be offering legal advice and services to the organization.

A company needs the services of a legal expert especially in contracts and legal proceedings. The lawyer can better advise the company on legal standings of a particular venture.

Large corporations require legal assistance to deal with legal issues, so they have in-house attorneys. Small and medium-sized businesses, on the other hand, can hire lawyers on an as-needed basis.

I think that any structured company must have a legal advisor that would look into business terms and contracts to see if it favours you or not. Any transaction that is in the form of contracts needs a lawyer.

That’s the point. It won’t make any sense to hire a lawyer when your business is not really big and that’s because you’d have to pay the lawyer too

Most of the companies hire a lawyer for the legal matters. When the company grows there is always a need of lawyer to solve such matters.

Not all business transactions requires the need of a lawyer, but having one does help especially when it comes to sorting out legal transactions.

It depends on the value of the business transaction, for low value business transactions it is not necessary to hire a lawyer, if the other party is reliable.
