About this Gig
As a licensed U.S. Attorney (Bar #364375), I understand that an unresolved dispute between co-founders can paralyze a startup, drain capital, and destroy company value. A well-drafted Deadlock Agreement acts as an emergency parachute, providing a clear, legally binding mechanism to break voting ties and keep your business moving forward.
I do not use generic templates. I draft highly customized legal frameworks designed to protect the continuity of your startup.
What this Gig includes:
- Clear definitions of deadlock trigger events
- Mandatory negotiation and cooling-off periods
- Mediation/Arbitration escalation matrix
- Advanced resolution mechanisms (Russian Roulette, Texas Shootout, or Put/Call options)
- Buyout terms and valuation metrics
- Strict adherence to U.S. state-specific corporate laws
Protect your startup from internal paralysis. Choose a package that fits your needs and lets you establish a secure, professional foundation for your company's future.
