Startup Lawyers for Entrepreneurs and Founders

We are a small group of startup lawyers formerly from national law firms. The principal of the law firm, Chris Harvey, has several years of experience representing startups and emerging growth companies. Clients retain us to represent their fundraising goals and exits, including Seed Round, Series A, and Series B. We walk clients through the process of fundraising strategies such as Safes, convertible notes, cap tables and founder equity splits. We help those same companies exit successfully through mergers and acquisitions (M&A).

The high level of trust we have with them does not exist with most other law firms. Harvey and his team have our highest recommendation for all our clients for that reason."
