This guy is a KC real estate lawyer that seems to be speaking on behalf of the Chiefs' potential possibilities in this situation rather than for the Chiefs in an official capacity. Any backstory on how he is legally representing the Chiefs? |
In-house legal teams aren't typically staffed up to cover ALL legal specialties. It would be expensive and inefficient.
So what they do instead is retain outside counsel who ARE specialized in areas, when and as needed.
In-house attorneys will have some specialties of their own, but depending on the size of the legal team may still outsource a big part of work that they COULD do. An in-house attorney/legal team is going to operate more like a CEO than anything else.
