Corporate, Startup Securities Law
About this Gig
Raising capital is a critical milestone for your startup, but poorly drafted fundraising instruments can destroy your cap table and deter future venture capital.
I provide sophisticated legal support for Pre-Seed, Seed, and Series A fundraising rounds. I draft clear, compliant, and investor-friendly instruments that protect founders while satisfying institutional and angel investors.
I specialize in drafting:
- SAFE Agreements (Pre-Money & Post-Money)
- Convertible Promissory Notes
- Fundraising Term Sheets
- Investor Rights Agreements
- Board & Shareholder Approvals for Financing
Whether you are raising $50k from friends and family or $2M from an Angel syndicate, you need documentation that adheres strictly to US corporate finance standards.
Your cap table and valuation are critical. Please send me a message in my inbox before placing an order so we can discuss the specifics of your funding round, valuation caps, and discount rates.

FAQ
Should I use a SAFE or a Convertible Note?
SAFEs are simpler, equity-driven, and lack interest rates/maturity dates. Notes are debt instruments with interest. We can discuss which is best in the inbox.
Do you use the standard Y-Combinator SAFE?
I base the SAFE on the industry-standard YC framework, but heavily customize it to reflect your specific valuation cap, discount rate, and pro-rata rights.
Will these documents help keep my cap table clean?
Absolutely. Clear, well-drafted conversion mechanics are vital to preventing cap table errors during your next priced round.
Can you draft documents for international investors?
The documents will be governed by US law (typically Delaware), but can be drafted to accommodate foreign investors subscribing to a US entity.
What do you need to get started?
I will need your target raise amount, valuation cap, discount rate, and entity details. Please message me first!
