Common questions
Do we need a shareholders’ agreement if there are only two founders?
Yes. Founder disputes are most common in two-person companies. A short agreement on roles, vesting, decision-making and exit avoids most of them.
Can you review a document the investor has sent?
Yes. We mark it up with clear comments on what is standard, what is negotiable and what is risky for you.
How are fees charged for drafting?
Usually as a fixed fee per document, agreed before we start.
