Which stage is your business at?

No founder can be an expert across all the areas involved in running a business and that’s where we can help. We’ll work with you to make sure you have the right legal building blocks in place to scale and succeed.

From day one, we can help put you in the best position to succeed. That might mean taking care of your share allocations, option scheme and cap table, or establishing a solid data foundation and ensuring compliance for the future. We can help you set up initial employment documentation, or make sure you’re safeguarding your most valuable assets, such as the intellectual property generated through your product and brand.

We understand you don’t have an unlimited budget. Our team will work with you to understand what really matters to your business, and where you could use our help the most, to ensure that you’re making the best use of your legal spend.
