FAQ
Why do I need a Founders Agreement if we are friends?
Business dynamics change. A legally binding agreement prevents disputes over equity, roles, and IP if a founder decides to leave or a disagreement occurs.
Do your agreements include Intellectual Property (IP) Assignment?
Yes, my Premium package includes a dedicated IP Assignment agreement to ensure the company owns all ideas and code, which is critical for future investors.
Can you set up a vesting schedule for our equity?
Absolutely. I can draft standard time-based vesting (e.g., 4-year with a 1-year cliff) or custom milestone-based vesting schedules.
What happens if a shareholder wants to sell their shares?
I include robust "Buy-Sell" and "Right of First Refusal" provisions in the Standard and Premium packages to protect the company from unwanted outside owners.
Are these agreements tailored to my specific state laws?
Yes, all documents are drafted to comply with the specific state jurisdiction (e.g., Delaware, California) where your company is registered.
