Reviews summarized from public sources, tagged by the legal situation involved.
Steve's team handled our entity, IP assignment, founder agreements, and Series A close. Investors' counsel had nothing to push back on. Smooth round.
Carlos formed my LLC and negotiated my Wilshire-corridor lease. Saved me thousands in lease concessions I didn't know to ask for.
Bought out my business partner of 12 years. Jane structured the buy-sell, valuation, and earn-out. Clean exit, no litigation.
