Startups & Technology
Technology companies accumulate legal needs quickly because customers, contributors, data, intellectual property, and financing are all documented through different agreements. The firm represents SaaS, AI, and digital-platform companies from formation through enterprise contracting and continuing outside counsel.
The work may include founder and equity documentation, IP assignment, commercial templates, employment and contractor agreements, platform terms, data and licensing provisions, intercompany arrangements, and negotiation with larger customers or partners.

FAQs

Data ownership, training rights, and output ownership are drafted expressly in the firm’s technology agreements — precisely because default rules are unsettled.
We’re pre-revenue. What’s the minimum viable legal setup?
IP assignment and founder terms first; everything else phases in. The foundation review tells you the order.
