Wise counsel.
Clear insights.
Counsel & Clarity™ is a firm that provides a unique blend of legal and leadership support to businesses and executives.
Our clients trust us to provide them with guidance from setback to comeback. Your resilience is our business.
Leadership Resilience
Prevent risks from becoming problems and rebound faster from inevitable reversals.
Counsel & Clarity™ looks for legal risks early and deals with them before they turn into disputes. Preventive work usually costs less than litigation, and it lets you make decisions with the consequences in view.
When a setback comes anyway, resilient leadership coaching helps you and your leaders recover and lead again with competence, confidence and trust.
Client success is no accident.
Our support cycle reinforces your team.
Noel Bagwell has practiced law since 2012, advising start-ups, growth-stage companies, executives and investors. The Counsel & Clarity™ support cycle offers three kinds of help that a client can use together or separately: leadership coaching for the setbacks no one can prevent, legal support that keeps risks from becoming problems, and law and leadership consulting for the decisions where the two meet.
Through Profit from Legal™, Counsel & Clarity™ can serve as your fractional Chief Legal Officer, working alongside the lawyers you already use or filling a role you haven’t hired yet. Each engagement is shaped to the client, from a single project to an annual subscription.
