What are you trying to do?
Nine areas of business law for founders and growing private companies, grouped by the moment they usually come up: formation, fundraising, exits, power shifts and inflection points.
FormationGet the structure right while it is still cheap to change.
- Business formation and ownership
Helping founders select and establish the right entity, document ownership and management, and put founder and operating agreements in place.
- Intellectual property and brand protection
Trademark applications, IP ownership and assignments, confidentiality agreements, and licensing.
FundraisingRaise money with your eyes open.
ExitsPrepare for the exit you want, and protect what you have built.
Power shiftsWhen interests diverge, know where you stand.
- Business disputes and pre-litigation strategy
Assessing disputes, developing practical response strategies, and pursuing negotiated resolutions before litigation.
- Employment and workforce
Helping businesses with employment agreements, contractor relationships, workplace policies, and sensitive personnel decisions.
Inflection pointsDeals that change the shape of the company.
- Contracts and commercial relationships
Drafting, reviewing, and negotiating customer and vendor agreements, service agreements, licensing arrangements, and strategic partnerships.
- U.S. market entry
