About this Gig
The most common reason startups fail is co-founder disputes. Without clear, legally binding agreements regarding equity, roles, and intellectual property, your startup is inherently un-investable.

FAQ
Why do I need a founders agreement if we are friends?
Business dynamics change. A founders agreement protects the business and the friendship by clearly outlining what happens regarding equity and control if a founder leaves, underperforms, or disagrees on direction.
What is an IP Assignment and why do VCs require it?
Investors need to know the company owns its intellectual property. An IP assignment legally transfers the rights of anything the founders created prior to incorporation directly to the company.
Do you include vesting schedules?
Yes, the Premium package includes equity vesting terms (e.g., standard 4-year vest with a 1-year cliff) to ensure founders earn their equity over time.
Will these documents pass investor due diligence?
Yes. I draft these documents specifically to align with standard US venture capital and angel investor expectations.
Can you draft documents for non-US founders?
Yes, provided the startup entity is, or will be, registered in the United States (e.g., a Delaware C-Corp or US LLC).
