Startup Formation Package
Prepare your company for investment with proper corporate structure, cap table management, and employment/advisor agreements.
Why Legal Structure Matters for Funding
When seeking investment, your company's legal structure and documentation come under intense scrutiny. Investors want to see that your business is built on a solid legal foundation that protects their investment and allows for growth.
Legal issues discovered during due diligence can delay or even derail funding rounds. Being proactive about creating a funding-ready legal structure helps ensure a smooth fundraising process and demonstrates to investors that you're a professional, prepared founder.
Our Startup Formation Services
Corporate Structure Optimization
We help you establish or refine your corporate structure to be attractive to investors and scalable for future growth. This includes entity selection, state of incorporation considerations, and corporate governance practices.
Cap Table Management
We help you create and maintain a clean capitalization table that accurately reflects ownership and equity incentives. We advise on equity distribution, vesting schedules, and employee equity plans that align with investor expectations.
Due Diligence Preparation
We conduct pre-investment legal audits to identify and resolve issues before investors do. We help organize your corporate records, IP documentation, and contracts to ensure they're complete and investor-ready.
Financing Documentation
We draft and negotiate term sheets, investment agreements, convertible notes, SAFEs, and other financing documents that protect your interests while remaining attractive to investors.
Our Comprehensive Startup Launch Package
Most successful startups are registered as Delaware C-corporations, especially those planning to raise venture capital. Our Startup Launch Package is designed to help you establish the proper legal foundation from the beginning, covering all essential aspects of business formation.
Core Incorporation Documents
We handle the preparation and filing of your certificate of incorporation, bylaws, action by incorporator, and organizational board consent. These foundational documents establish your corporation as a separate legal entity and set the governance rules for your business.
Capitalization & Equity Structure
Our package covers capitalization matters for up to two founders, including stock purchase agreements, notice of issuance, and assistance with 83(b) election preparation. We also create your Equity Incentive Plan (EIP) with forms for restricted stock and stock options to attract and retain talent.
Employment & Service Provider Agreements
Protect your intellectual property with comprehensive agreement templates for employees (offer letters and Confidentiality and Invention Assignment Agreements), consultants (Consulting Agreements), and advisors (Advisor Agreements).
Investment Readiness
We set up your corporate data room with a comprehensive checklist, ensuring all documents are organized and ready for investor due diligence. We also assist with obtaining your EIN, which is necessary for opening a bank account and filing tax returns.
