We use Gunderson which is a big named law firm in Silicon Valley. We've raised some capital but we find their legal fees are getting outrageous. We blew past their $20K of deferred fees quickly and now are getting billed at high hundreds for every small task I have them do.<p>I've heard several founders who use different techniques to reduce legal costs including forcing them to notify you if they ever go over a certain $ amount or use someone over $XX/hr. Any suggestions?<p>Also, we've considered moving to a smaller office of 2-3 partners who charge substantially less per hour.<p>Any recommendations?
