About Us
Today, every legal department is expected to do more with less.
It all starts with the right team.
Today it seems every business is expected to do more with less – and in few places is that more true than corporate legal departments. Enter Breakpoint, the premier talent and performance agency for the in-house legal community. Breakpoint provides support across day-to-day business challenges that face your team, allowing you to focus on what you do best – solving complex and technical legal matters. We’ll take care of the rest.
Breakpoint’s innovative talent and team solutions are developed by former Chief Legal Officers, recognizing that the best solutions are created by those who have experienced the challenge first hand. All of Breakpoint’s solutions are different by design, recognizing that company size, growth trajectory, strategic goals and more all impact recruiting, organizational design, and team development. As a result, our solutions vary in methodology, scope, and price point.


No one understands in-house legal talent and department challenges like us.
The Breakpoint differentiation starts with its founders.
For 20+ years, Breakpoint’s Co-Founders, Scott Chaplin and Sean Gallagher, have both served as Chief Legal Officers and Chief People Officers.
Their experience extends to a wide-range of company sizes, including VC-backed start-ups, high growth pre-IPO, privately held mid-cap, and Fortune 500 publicly-traded global enterprises. Their industry experience is equally diverse, including technology, defense/national security, sports, healthcare, education, life sciences, aerospace, retail, and manufacturing.
