Why Choose a Licensed Attorney Over a Consultant?

Edye Edens and Darshan Kulkarni share the origin story of KLF and explain what makes working with licensed attorneys different from hiring non-legal consultants. They highlight three key advantages:

Privilege & Confidentiality: Legal privilege means attorneys must keep client information confidential indefinitely—offering stronger protections than standard NDAs.
Broader Strategic Scope: Lawyers approach problems with a strategic lens, integrating legal, operational, and regulatory considerations before offering advice, often working alongside consultants for execution.
Duty to Client’s Best Interests: Attorneys are legally bound to prioritize the client’s best interests, even when it conflicts with their own financial gain.

They emphasize that while consultants and contractors bring valuable skills, legal licensing carries unique obligations and analytical approaches that can be a “game changer” for clients.
