Results-Oriented Representation

Serving Clients in Ohio & Beyond

Fractional General Counsel, Litigator & Federal Appellate Practitioner

Ben Sigall

Attorney at Law

With a focus on tangible results and singular dedication to my clients' success, my approach to law is grounded in extensive legal knowledge, creative thinking, and tenacity. I have a demonstrated history of bringing shrewd advice and exceptional advocacy to individuals, startups, mid-sized businesses, and publicly traded corporations throughout the country, ensuring they receive top-tier legal advice regardless of their stature. My practice is physically based in Chillicothe, Ohio, but its nature is suited to clients throughout the United States, especially with the ability to associate with local counsel or appear pro hac vice where necessary.

-

I am particularly interested in developing local counsel and Fractional General Counsel (FGC) relationships. I believe an FGC offers the best value proposition for appropriate clients, as well as represents the most personally rewarding use of my combined skill set. Clients receive the benefit of a practicing attorney as an integrated team member, without the overhead of employing a full-time counsel. This type of relationship also affords the opportunity to creatively and appropriately craft the engagement to the scale of the needs of the business so that the client doesn't end up with bill anxiety.

I also provide sophisticated appellate representation, litigation representation, contract negotiation, and intellectual property services. Whether you're forming something new or defending what you've spent many years building, I'm committed to protecting your rights and best interests!

The Sigall.law Difference

Economically-Minded Advice

Nobody wants to waste money. Central to my responsibility to clients is advising them how not to waste theirs. Relatedly, I understand that extraneous legal costs can be a concern for many businesses, especially those preparing for takeoff. Which is part of why I enjoy the alignment that comes from Fractional General Counsel relationships; it's a cost-effective pathway for decision makers seeking to incorporate an attorney's ongoing guidance, but without the overhead of a full-time general counsel. Moreover, a predictable legal budget allows clients to normalize leveraging my value to their business.

Regardless of the relationship, I'll prioritize your business' economic interests when representing you, while striving to maintain prudent fee structures and provide as much visibility on expected legal costs as reasonably within my control. That paradigm positions you to focus on what you do best—running your business.

Exceptional Advocacy

In addition to my out-of-court practice, I am an active trial attorney. I appear in cases under active litigation in trial courts throughout the state, often as local appearance counsel. Being in court several times a week in front of different judges in different venues keeps me sharp as a negotiator, quick on my feet, and keenly attuned to the fact that every locality has its peculiarities and personalities, awareness of which can make the difference in close cases. That practical human perspective is an example of what embodies exceptional advocacy; it's not just legal book smarts.

My unique combination of roles and experience allows me to offer a wide range of insights and reliable guidance to my clients, no matter what their goals are or what they're going through.

Business Litigation

If you're facing a lawsuit or need to take legal action against another party, I'll work with you to understand the business considerations at play while explaining the legal considerations. That way we can harmonize our strategy and fully game out our options. We will assemble a robust case, positioned for our best possible path forward, whether through pre-suit negotiation or during active litigation.

Intellectual Property

Your intellectual property assets are protectable by law through patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, and rights of publicity. I am able to help you secure and vindicate most of those assets and associated rights, as well as help you monetize and contract appropriately for them.
