I will draft a legally binding co founder agreement for your startup
Licensed US Attorney Bulletproof Legal Foundations for Startups
About this Gig
Entering a business with a co-founder is like a marriage; you need a legal safety net if things go wrong.
I am Lisa Rae Rohm, a licensed U.S. Attorney (Bar ID #126962), and I specialize in drafting airtight Co-Founder Agreements that mitigate risk and prevent expensive litigation.
A well-drafted Co-Founder Agreement is critical for defining partnership dynamics.
What I include in your custom agreement:
- Clear division of equity and profit sharing
- Operational duties and management authority
- Deadlock resolution (what happens if you disagree 50/50)
- Buy-sell agreements (Right of First Refusal)
- What happens if a co-founder dies, becomes disabled, or goes bankrupt
Investors demand to see these agreements before they write a check. Do not risk your startups future on cheap templates. Let an experienced U.S. attorney draft a document that secures your business and your peace of mind.

FAQ
What happens if a co-founder wants to leave?
I include specific "exit clauses" and buyout procedures to ensure the business continues smoothly.
Is this different from an Operating Agreement?
Yes. This governs the specific relationship and promises between founders, preceding or complementing an Operating Agreement.
How do you handle a 50/50 voting deadlock?
I draft mechanisms such as third-party mediation or shotgun clauses to resolve standstills.
