About this Gig
One of the biggest reasons startups fail to secure venture capital funding is the lack of a clear "Chain of Title" for their Intellectual Property. If you haven't properly assigned IP from your founders, developers, and contractors to your LLC or C-Corp, your business is at risk.
I am Stephen J. Akerley, a licensed US Attorney (Bar #160757), and I help startups bulletproof their intellectual property.
I expertly draft:
- Founder IP Assignment Agreements
- Employee/Independent Contractor IP Assignments
- Technology & Copyright Transfer Agreements
- Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDA)
- Non-Compete & Confidentiality Agreements
If a contractor builds your app or a co-founder designs your logo, they own it until a legally binding IP Assignment is signed. I will draft agreements that irrevocably transfer all rights, titles, and interests to your company, ensuring you are investor-ready and legally secure.
Disclaimer: My services are for document drafting only. I do not file patents/trademarks with the USPTO under this gig, nor do I provide court representation.

FAQ
Why do I need an IP assignment if I paid a freelancer for the work?
Under US copyright law, the creator owns the work even if you paid them, unless there is a signed agreement explicitly assigning the IP to you.
What is a Founder IP Assignment?
It is a contract where the founders transfer the ideas, code, and business concepts they created before the company was officially incorporated, into the new company
Do these agreements help with securing investors?
Yes. During due diligence, investors will demand to see signed IP assignments from everyone who touched your product. My documents ensure you pass that check.
