About this Gig

Hello, I am Charles Paul Rettig, Esq., a licensed U.S. Attorney (Bar ID: 97848).

Issuing equity is the most critical decision a founding team makes. Handshake deals or cheap internet templates frequently lead to deadlocks, tax liabilities, and un-investable cap tables.

A meticulously drafted Founder Equity Allocation Agreement ensures every founder earns their shares over time, protecting the company if someone walks away early.


My legal drafting includes:

  • Authorization and issuance of shares/membership units.
  • Time-based or milestone-based vesting schedules.
  • Vesting cliffs to protect against early founder departure.
  • Single and Double-Trigger acceleration clauses (Premium).
  • Section 83(b) election acknowledgement.


I bring the precision of a seasoned corporate attorney to your startup, ensuring your cap table is structured exactly how venture capitalists and angel investors expect to see it.

Do not gamble with your equity. Order now for expert legal drafting.
