About this Gig
Secure your Cap Table with a professional Vesting Agreement drafted by a Licensed US Attorney.
Giving away equity upfront without a vesting schedule is the biggest mistake a startup can make. If a co-founder leaves after six months with 50% of the company, your startup is dead. I draft precise Vesting Agreements that protect the business and ensure equity is strictly earned over time.
What I will draft for you:
- Standard & Custom Vesting Schedules: (e.g., 4-year vesting with a 1-year cliff).
- Single & Double-Trigger Acceleration: What happens to unvested shares if the company is acquired or a founder is fired.
- Repurchase Rights: The company's legal right to buy back unvested shares.
- Advisor Vesting: Shorter vesting terms tailored specifically for startup advisors.
I do not require introductory calls. I rely on my legal expertise and your straightforward instructions via the order requirements to deliver flawless, legally binding documents quickly.

FAQ
What is a 1-year cliff?
It means the founder must stay with the company for at least 1 full year before any equity officially vests. If they leave at month 11, they walk away with 0%.
What is Double-Trigger Acceleration?
It protects the founder. Unvested shares immediately vest if the company is acquired (Trigger 1) AND the founder is fired by the new owners (Trigger 2).
Can this be used for startup advisors?
Yes, the Premium package covers equity allocation and vesting specifically tailored for advisors (usually over 1 or 2 years).
Will this agreement legally allow the company to reclaim shares?
Yes, it includes clear Repurchase Rights for unvested shares.
Why should I hire you instead of using a free template?
Free templates often lack state-specific compliance and acceleration nuances. As a US Attorney, I ensure there are no loopholes that could cost you millions later.
