I will prepare startup due diligence package and investor data room

About this Gig
When angel investors or venture capital firms issue a Term Sheet, the deal lives or dies in the legal due diligence phase. Broken equity chains, missing IP assignments, undocumented board consents, and messy cap tables cause venture deals to stall, valuations to drop, or rounds to fall through entirely.

FAQ
What are the most common red flags VCs find during due diligence?
The most frequent deal-breakers are missing intellectual property assignments from early founders or contractors, unapproved stock issuances, lack of 83(b) election records, and ambiguous convertible note or SAFE terms that distort the cap table.
How does this gig prepare my company for a VC fundraising round?
I perform a pre-diligence review mirroring the exact investigation carried out by venture counsel. We discover and legally remediate gaps in corporate history, governance, and IP ownership before investors conduct their formal review.
Can you fix past corporate mistakes, such as missing board resolutions?
Yes. Under Delaware and standard corporate legal frameworks, past informal corporate actions can be legally corrected through formal ratifying resolutions and omnibus board consents, which I draft for you.
Will you review my SAFEs, convertible notes, and option plans?
Yes. In the Standard and Premium packages, I review your outstanding convertible instruments and equity grants to verify authority, track dilution implications, and ensure proper documentation.
How is the virtual data room delivered?
I deliver a standardized, numbered index and folder framework matching top Silicon Valley venture firm diligence templates, along with the required legal documents, clean templates, and explanatory legal memos.
