About this Gig
Statistically, over 60% of startups fail due to co-founder disputes. When the "founder divorce" happens, a weak agreement will destroy your company. I am Dennis L. Vanairsdale, a veteran licensed attorney (Bar #001676), providing elite Founder Shareholder Agreements and Corporate Governance structures.
A handshake agreement will not survive a multi-million dollar valuation. I draft binding, VC-ready governance terms that establish absolute clarity regarding control, vesting, and equity retrieval if a founder leaves early.
What I deliver:
- Strict founder vesting schedules and cliffs.
- Clear definitions of day-to-day operational control and voting rights.
- IP (Intellectual Property) assignment to the company.
- "Good Leaver / Bad Leaver" provisions for departing founders.
Protect your life's work from rogue partners. Establish professional, investor-grade corporate governance from day one. Do not leave your cap table exposed to litigation. Order premium legal drafting for your startup today.

FAQ
What is a "Good Leaver / Bad Leaver" clause?
It dictates what happens to a founder's equity depending on why they left (e.g., fired for cause vs. leaving due to illness), protecting the remaining equity.
Does this agreement include Intellectual Property (IP) assignment?
Yes, this is critical. The agreement ensures that all IP created by the founders belongs legally to the company, not the individuals.
Can you set up a Board of Directors structure?
Yes. The Premium package includes detailed governance terms on how board seats are allocated and how major decisions are voted upon.
