I will draft a binding founder intellectual property assignment agreement
Licensed US Attorney Protecting Your Startup's Most Valuable Assets
About this Gig
Before your startup was legally formed, you and your co-founders were brainstorming, coding, and designing. Legally, the founders own that IPnot the company.
As a licensed U.S. Attorney (Bar ID #176383), I draft Founder IP Assignment Agreements that safely transfer all pre-incorporation ideas, code, and branding directly to your new corporate entity.
Investors will refuse to fund your startup if the company does not cleanly own its core IP. A dispute between founders over who owns the software or brand can destroy a startup overnight.
My service ensures:
- Total transfer of pre-existing IP to the startup.
- Protection against departing founders claiming IP ownership.
- Clean "chain of title" for future investor due diligence.
Do not risk your startups foundation. Get an agreement drafted by a real attorney.

Will investors ask for this?
Yes. A clean chain of title for IP is a mandatory requirement for VC funding.
