FAQ
Why is a Delaware C-Corp the standard for venture-backed startups?
Delaware offers the most developed corporate case law, specialized Chancery Courts, and flexible corporate statutes (DGCL) that institutional venture capital firms and angel investors require before deploying capital.
What is an 83(b) election, and why is it time-sensitive?
An 83(b) election notifies the IRS that you elect to pay taxes on the current fair market value of your unvested founder shares. It must be postmarked to the IRS within 30 days of stock issuance; missing this statutory deadline cannot be cured
What standard vesting schedule do you draft?
The industry baseline for institutional financing is a 4-year vesting schedule with a 1-year cliff. Custom vesting schedules, single-trigger, and double-trigger acceleration clauses are tailored based on your founder arrangements.
Does this package include filing directly with the Delaware Division of Corporations?
This gig delivers complete, ready-to-file legal documents, statutory templates, and instructions. State filing fees and registered agent services are paid directly to your chosen provider or the Delaware Division o
Why do founders need a Proprietary Information and Inventions Assignment (CIIA)?
Without an executed CIIA, intellectual property developed prior to or during company formation remains with the individual inventor, creating a major red flag that halts investor funding.
