About this Gig

Many founders make the mistake of working for their own startup without a formal employment agreement. This exposes you to personal liability, tax complications, and the risk of being ousted by future investors without compensation.


As a licensed U.S. lawyer, I draft Founder Employment Agreements that legally separate you as an individual from your corporate entity.


This contract will cover:

  • Formalization of the founder's W-2 employee status
  • Clear outline of Chief Executive/Founder duties
  • Protection against wrongful termination by the Board
  • Vesting schedules (e.g., standard 4-year with 1-year cliff)
  • Absolute transfer of founder-created IP to the company
  • Lock-up periods and right of first refusal (ROFR)


Investors expect to see formal founder agreements during due diligence. Ensure your startup is fundable and your personal rights are protected. Order now for attorney-level legal drafting.
