Protect your startups most valuable asset: its founding team.
As a licensed U.S. Attorney (Bar No. #001475), I specialize in drafting bulletproof Startup Founders Agreements. A poorly structured partnership can lead to catastrophic equity disputes, loss of IP, and uninvestable cap tables.

- Equity allocation and ownership percentages
- Vesting schedules (Time-based, Milestone, Cliff provisions)
- Intellectual Property (IP) assignment to the company
- Roles, responsibilities, and decision-making authority
- Dispute resolution and exit strategies

FAQ
Is this agreement valid in my state?
Yes, I draft these agreements using standard corporate legal principles that are applicable and enforceable across all 50 U.S. states.
Does this contract include IP assignment?
Yes, all packages include clauses ensuring that intellectual property created by founders is properly assigned to the startup.
How does the vesting schedule work?
Vesting ensures founders earn their equity over time (typically 4 years with a 1-year cliff). I will customize this to your specific needs.
Can you handle complex or unequal equity splits?
Absolutely. I can draft agreements reflecting unequal ownership, specialized voting rights, or capital contribution disparities.
Why do I need a licensed attorney for this?
Generic templates often lack critical protections like deadlock resolution and reverse vesting, which can cost you your company during a dispute.
