FAQ
Why does my startup need corporate governance documents?
Corporate governance documents, like Corporate Bylaws and Board Resolutions, are legally required to maintain your corporate shield, protecting your personal assets from business liabilities.
Do you draft Delaware C-Corp startup documents?
Yes. Delaware is the standard for tech startups and investors. I draft Delaware-compliant corporate bylaws, founders agreements, and startup governance documents.
What is included in a Founders Agreement?
A comprehensive Founders Agreement outlines equity splits, vesting schedules, intellectual property (IP) assignments, and what happens if a co-founder leaves the startup.
Are you a licensed U.S. startup attorney?
Yes, I am Elise C. Anderson, a licensed U.S. Attorney (Bar #011724). Your corporate operating documents are drafted by a real lawyer, not a paralegal or automated software.
Can you draft documents for my specific State?
Absolutely. I tailor all corporate operating documents and startup agreements to comply with the specific corporate laws of your state of incorporation.
Do I need these documents to get funding from investors?
these documents to get funding from investors? Answer: Yes. Angel investors and Venture Capitalists (VCs) will conduct strict due diligence. Having attorney-drafted corporate governance documents shows your startup is investable and legally sound.
What is an IP Assignment Agreement?
This document legally transfers the intellectual property created by the founders or employees into the company's name, which is vital for the value of your startup.
Can you draft a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA)?
Yes, the Premium package includes a custom NDA. I draft strict confidentiality agreements to protect your startup's trade secrets before you pitch to investors or hire contractors.
What information do you need to draft my founders agreement?
I will need the names of the founders, your business name, the state of registration, equity percentages, and your desired rules for voting and management.
Do you draft operating documents for LLCs as well?
Yes. While this gig focuses heavily on Corporations and general startup partnerships, I have a separate dedicated gig specifically for custom LLC Operating Agreements.
