A Legal Consultant is a lawyer or attorney who provides legal advice and guidance to clients, often corporations. They help clients to navigate legal matters like compliance and mitigate risks. Their work typically involves conducting legal research, drafting documents and developing legal strategies. However, legal consultants typically do not represent their clients in court.
A Legal Consultant will typically be specialized in one or several areas of law, such as family, criminal, civil, environmental or corporate.
Legal Consultants will be licensed attorneys with a degree in law. In the US, this is a ABA-accredited Juris Doctor (JD) degree. US Legal Consultants will also have passed the bar exam for the state in which they practice law.

It's best to look for a Legal Consultant with experience in your specific area of concern. For example, a corporate will typically look to employ a Legal Consultant with experience in corporate, administrative or contract law.
Most Legal Consultants will not represent you in court, so if this is something you are specifically looking for in your Legal Consultant, it's best to ask in the initial interview.
Many companies only require a Legal Consultant's services on a part-time basis, often only for a few hours per month. In these cases, a Legal Consultant will typically have a large roster of clients and charge a retainer fee as well as an hourly consultation rate. If you need a more dedicated legal resource, make this clear in the initial interview.
