FAQ
Why shouldn't we just do a 50/50 split?
A strict 50/50 split often leads to decision deadlocks. I include dispute resolution frameworks to bypass these issues.
Can ownership be based on future contributions?
Yes, we can structure the agreement so that ownership percentages are tied to specific milestones or capital injections.
Does this include non-compete clauses?
Yes, Standard and Premium packages include non-compete and non-solicitation clauses.
What if one cofounder puts in cash and the other does the work?
I will structure the agreement to fairly value "sweat equity" against capital contributions.
Can this be used for an LLC or a C-Corp?
Yes, the agreement can be tailored to suit the specific legal entity type you intend to form.
