I will write your startup advisor agreement and vesting schedule
Licensed US Attorney Elite Startup, Equity Corporate Contracts
About this Gig
Never give away startup equity upfront. As a Licensed US Attorney (Bar #64831), I have seen founders lose large chunks of their company to advisors who simply didn't deliver.
The ultimate protection for your startup is a legally binding Vesting Schedule attached to an airtight Advisor Agreement. I will draft a contract that ensures your advisor only earns their equity over time or upon hitting specific, measurable milestones.
What this Gig covers:
- Complete Advisor Agreement drafting
- Time-based vesting schedules (e.g., 2-year vesting with a 3-month cliff)
- Milestone-based vesting schedules (tied to deliverables)
- Acceleration clauses (what happens if your company is acquired)
Protect your cap table from "dead equity." Ensure your advisors earn their keep. Choose your package and place your order now for elite legal drafting.

FAQ
What is a vesting cliff?
A cliff is a period (e.g., 3 months) an advisor must serve before any equity legally vests to them.
What is the difference between time and milestone vesting?
Time vests equity monthly/yearly; milestone vests equity only when specific goals are achieved.
What is Single/Double Trigger Acceleration?
It dictates if equity vests immediately if your startup is acquired or the advisor is terminated.
Can I use this for multiple advisors?
The contract is drafted for one specific advisor, but can be used as a template for future ones.
Are your contracts compliant with Delaware C-Corp standards?
Yes, I specialize in US corporate law and Delaware standards.
