Founder advisory
Steady legal guidance as you navigate formation and ownership design.
We advise founders directly, as individuals, on formation, alignment, and decision-making. Whether you already have a company or are still determining how it should be structured, founder advisory provides independent guidance on roles, ownership, and governance.
Early founder decisions often shape the company's legal structure long after formation. Addressing those questions early allows documentation and governance to reflect how founders intend to operate the business.
This is not company counsel. It is counsel to you as a founder, focused on alignment among stakeholders, thoughtful documentation, and legal systems that support long-term stability.
Who we help
Founder advisory is direct counsel to you — our other services advise the company
01
The Co-Founder
Navigating formation before or alongside a co-founder, with the right structure from day one.
02
The Solo Founder
Deciding entity structure and ownership design without a team to pressure-test ideas with.
03
The Aligning Founder
Seeking clarity on roles, equity, and expectations with partners or early team members.
04
The Governance Builder
Building governance and decision-making processes before complexity demands it.
The Full Picture
Founder advisory is counsel to you personally as a founder, separate from the company's counsel. Founders often seek independent guidance on ownership, governance, and alignment decisions as the business evolves.
