I will align your tech pitch deck with an sec compliant ppm
Licensed US Attorney Premium Tech Startup, SaaS and SEC Legal Counsel
About this Gig
One of the fastest ways to trigger an SEC investigation or an investor lawsuit is a discrepancy between your marketing materials (Pitch Deck) and your legal offering documents (PPM). Under SEC Rule 10b-5 (Anti-Fraud), misleading statements or omitted facts in a pitch deck can lead to severe personal liability for founders.
As a licensed U.S. Attorney (Bar #60570), I will bridge the gap between your marketing vision and strict legal compliance.
My services include:
- Rule 10b-5 Audit: Eliminating legally dangerous hyperbole ("guaranteed returns," "risk-free").
- Safe Harbor Disclaimers: Drafting robust forward-looking statement disclaimers for your financial projections.
- PPM Synchronization: Ensuring your cap table, use of proceeds, and business model align perfectly across both documents.
Your pitch deck should excite investors, but it must not expose you to legal peril. I will ensure your deck is aggressive in the market but highly defensive in a courtroom. Provide your pitch deck and PPM via the order requirements, and let's make your raise bulletproof.

FAQ
Do you redesign the visual elements of the pitch deck?
No, I do not provide graphic design services. I provide high-level legal auditing, text alignment, and disclaimer drafting.
What is a Rule 10b-5 violation?
It is an SEC rule prohibiting any act or omission resulting in fraud or deceit in connection with the purchase or sale of any security. Overpromising in a deck can violate this.
What is a Safe Harbor statement?
It is a legal disclaimer placed in your deck that protects you from liability if your forward-looking statements (like financial projections) do not come true.
Why do both documents need to match exactly?
If your pitch deck promises one use of funds, but your PPM states another, an investor who loses money can sue you for misrepresentation. Consistency is your best defense.
Can I order this if my PPM is not finished yet?
Yes, I can review your pitch deck independently and draft the necessary legal disclaimers to ensure it is safe to show investors while your PPM is being finalized.
