A successful startup requires more than just a great idea; it requires a rock-solid legal foundation between founders, advisors, and early investors. Without proper vesting schedules and equity agreements, founder disputes can destroy a company before it even launches.
As a Licensed US Attorney (Bar #93341), I draft comprehensive fundraising and equity contracts that protect your IP, secure your equity, and keep your startup compliant.
Contracts Available:
- Founder's Agreements: Equity splits, IP assignment, and vesting schedules (Cliff agreements).
- Advisor Agreements (FAST): Compensating early advisors with equity safely.
- Fundraising Docs: NDAs and Seed-stage SAFE notes.
Build your startup on a foundation of legal certainty. Review the packages to find the legal kit that fits your current stage, and order today to secure your company's framework.

FAQ
What is a Founder's Agreement?
It is a legally binding contract between co-founders dictating equity ownership, roles, IP rights, and what happens if a founder leaves.

It is a contract used to give advisors a small percentage of equity in exchange for their ongoing mentorship and industry connections.
Does the Founders Agreement include IP assignment?
