I will draft corporate startup investment and sec compliance docs
Licensed US Corporate Securities Attorney Bar 146641
About this Gig
Navigating the intersection of corporate governance and SEC regulations is a complex task for any startup. As a Licensed US Attorney (Bar #146641), I ensure your company is legally compliant, fully incorporated, and prepared to accept investment capital without violating federal securities laws.
Raising funds triggers immediate SEC and state-level "Blue Sky" compliance requirements. Failing to file the correct exemptions or having incomplete corporate bylaws can result in forced rescission of funds and severe penalties.
I provide:
- Corporate Governance: Drafting pristine Bylaws (C-Corps) or Operating Agreements (LLCs).
- IP Assignments: Legally transferring intellectual property from founders to the company.
- Corporate Resolutions: Documenting official board decisions for compliance.
- SEC Form D Prep: Preparing the necessary documentation to claim your federal exemptions.
Ensure your startup operates flawlessly within US corporate and securities laws. Select the compliance package that matches your needs and order directly to safeguard your business.

FAQ
What is SEC Form D?
Form D is a brief notice filed with the SEC required when a company sells securities under Regulation D exemptions.
What are Blue Sky laws?
In addition to the SEC, every US state has its own securities laws (Blue Sky laws) that must be complied with when raising capital from residents of that state.
Why is an IP Assignment Agreement important?
Investors will not fund a company if the founders personally own the code, brand, or patents. The IP must legally belong to the company.
Do you file the documents with the SEC for me?
I prepare the exact documentation and forms required. The actual submission via the EDGAR system is usually done by the company, though I provide full instructions.
Do I need an LLC or a C-Corp?
Venture capitalists almost exclusively require Delaware C-Corps. If you are a small business or real estate syndicate, an LLC is usually preferred.
Does this gig include forming the company with the state?
This gig is for internal corporate and compliance documents. If you need state incorporation filings, please message me for a custom order.
