You can have your cake and gorge on it too. ;-)

You can consistently have the same label (Contact Us) point to the "same"
page from different contexts simply by putting up the local info up top when
appropriate, then followed by global info which would be persistent on all
pages. Like so:

Where you have local info that takes precedence:

Contact Us... links to ->
    next page
        Local info
        Global info

Contact Us... links to ->
    next page
        Global info

No need to introduce another (potentially confusing) menu item on all or
even some pages.
