I will write a custom cofounder agreement and startup ownership structure
Licensed US Attorney, Securing Startup Founders and Equity
About this Gig
I am Kevin Patrick Dowling, a licensed US Attorney (Bar #367843). The leading cause of startup failure is co-founder conflict over ownership and decision-making. Protect your venture by legally defining your ownership structure from the start.
I provide professionally drafted cofounder agreements that establish clear hierarchies, ownership stakes, and operational guidelines. This ensures your business can scale smoothly without internal friction.
What is included:
- Precise startup ownership structuring and equity splits.
- Voting rights and decision-making protocols.
- Capital contribution requirements (who pays what).
- Confidentiality and Non-Compete clauses.
- Dispute resolution and deadlock-breaking mechanisms.
- Exit strategies and buyout provisions.
As a licensed attorney, I ensure your operational framework is legally enforceable and attractive to future venture capital. Review the packages above, choose the level of legal protection your startup requires, and submit your requirements via order today.

FAQ
How is this different from an Operating Agreement?
An operating agreement is specific to an LLC. A cofounder agreement acts as the foundational contract regardless of your corporate entity.
Can we alter ownership percentages later?
Yes, but the agreement dictates how and when those percentages can be legally altered or diluted.
Does this cover what happens if we disagree?
Yes, the Standard and Premium packages include deadlock resolution clauses to solve major business disagreements.
Will this hold up in court?
Yes. Drafted by a licensed US attorney, this contract is legally binding and enforceable under US law.
Do we both need to sign it?
Yes, all named co-founders must sign the document for the ownership structure to be legally executed.
