About this Gig

Welcome. I am James T. Wada, a Licensed US Attorney (Bar #001720).


Distributing equity is how startups attract top talent, align co-founders, and secure advisors. However, issuing equity without proper vesting documentation creates massive liability and deters future funding.


I provide comprehensive Startup Equity Vesting Documentation that legally binds the distribution of shares to continued service and value creation.


My Drafting Services Include:


  • Restricted Stock Purchase Agreements (RSPA)
  • Vesting Schedules for Founders, Key Hires, and Advisors
  • Corporate Board Consents/Resolutions for Equity Issuance
  • Section 83(b) Election guidance provisions
  • Right of First Refusal (ROFR) and Co-Sale Agreements


Whether you are distributing initial shares to co-founders or granting equity to your first CTO, I ensure your documentation is legally sound, investor-compliant, and dispute-proof.


Protect your equity pool with attorney-drafted contracts. Choose your package and submit your requirements to start immediately.
