Small and midsize companies, facing more challenges than ever, may desire seasoned legal guidance but lack the budget or scale to justify a full-time general counsel. One Atlanta-based firm is looking to package that expertise for them.

Taylor English Duma is drawing on its unusually large roster of lawyers with decades of in-house experience to launch a dedicated GC practice offering big-picture, strategic advice on an as-needed basis. The group is co-led by Allen Nelson, the former GC of Crawford & Co., and Gray McCalley Jr., former GC of Printpack.
