Ames Law Group P.C.

Jon Ames started Ames Law Group to fit a need he saw in the market, after years of practicing as an “in house” lawyer at some of the largest and most admired companies in the world, including Getty Images, the visual media company and news organization, and at VISA, the world leader in digital payments.

Jon recognized that growing businesses don't have a place to go for day-to-day legal needs, and that most companies don't actually need full-time legal support. A company needs a lawyer when they need it (to review a contract, or help with a tricky employee issue), from someone who already understands their business and the internal players, and offering cost-effective solutions. Too often, emerging companies don’t have one lawyer to turn to as they grow and instead rely on a hodgepodge of legal vendors as the business grows.

Jon’s model of a “virtual general counsel” allows clients to scale their legal support up and down, depending on the issues, the month, and the budget. And Jon understands how to provide the legal services clients require, with an entrepreneurial spirit and focus.
