Your Fractional General Counsel

Meet Matthew R.J. Knych

I serve as fractional general counsel to business owners who need consistent legal leadership without the overhead of a full-time in-house team.

Before founding Freedom Shield Legal, I served in senior legal and compliance roles and have built and advised multiple operating businesses. I understand the realities founders face because I have lived them – contracts under pressure, risk decisions in real time, and the need for clear, practical counsel.

My role is not to react after problems arise. It is to stay engaged, anticipate issues, and provide steady legal leadership that allows clients to operate confidently week after week.

  • Former General Counsel & Chief Compliance Officer

  • Founder and advisor to multiple businesses

  • Subscription-based, non-hourly engagements

  • Weekly client engagement and proactive support

How the engagement works

Fractional general counsel support built around consistency, access, and trust – not hourly billing.

Weekly engagement

You will have a standing weekly touchpoint to review contracts, decisions, risks, and upcoming issues - so nothing gets missed.

Ongoing coverage

Day-to-day legal guidance for contracts, compliance, employment matters, and operational questions - delivered within the scope of your engagement.

Proactive leadership

Issues are identified early, strategy is shaped in advance, and outside counsel is coordinated when needed - so you stay focused on running the business.
