I am a business, Internet, and intellectual property lawyer. My practice is split between both transactional work and litigation. Prior to law school, I earned a master’s degree in computer science, which gives me the background and experience to understand technology, software, and the Internet better than most attorneys, and so my practice focuses on these areas.

SAFE Note
New York
What is the difference between a SAFE Note and Convertible Note?
I am considering raising money and have been advised to look at these two instruments to raise money on.
Ramsey T.
Both SAFES (Simple Agreements for Equity) and Convertible Notes "convert" into equity. The fundamental difference between the two is that SAFES have no built-in interest rate and have no "end date." Convertible Notes are debt so they have an interest rate and after a certain period of time (perhaps two years in most cases) they can be "cashed in" by the holder who can force the start-up to pay back the investor (principal plus interest). SAFES have become very accepted in the investing community at this time and I always recommend that a start-up issue SAFES (and conversely I always recommend that an investor get a convertible note).

Convertible Note
Ohio
Convertible note vs. KISS agreement?
I am an early-stage startup founder looking to raise capital. I am exploring different financing options and am trying to decide between a Convertible Note and a KISS agreement. I want to understand the differences between these two financing options, and the advantages and disadvantages of each, in order to make an informed decision.
Paul S.
Probably the primary difference is that a convertible note is debt, with interest and a maturity date. I do a lot of work with startups, and I rarely see convertible notes used anymore, and never see KISS agreements used. SAFEs are much more prevalent. That being said, there are a lot of different variables in all these instruments, and you should never just download a template and use it without customizing to your needs and discussing it with an experienced startup attorney. There are also securities law considerations. Raising financing from investors is not a good DIY project.

Subscription Agreement
California
Is it possible to modify a Subscription Agreement after it has been signed?
I recently entered into a Subscription Agreement with a company to purchase shares in their business. However, since signing the agreement, I have come across some unexpected financial circumstances that may prevent me from fulfilling my obligations under the original terms. I am wondering if it is possible to modify the Subscription Agreement to accommodate these changes, or if I am legally bound to the original terms of the agreement.
Christopher N.
The short answer, as with all legal questions, is: it depends. You can certainly propose modify or be reased from your obligations, and depending on the company, your circumstances, your relationship, and their financial position, the company may be willing to entertain accomodations. It doesn't hurt to ask. Be prepared, however, for "penalties," which could mean the loss of your entire investment, significant reductions in the amount of your investment, etc. You may want to consider approaching other investors to see they would be willing to purchase some or all of your stake -- perhaps at a greater value than the company would offer. We highly recommend you consult with a business or securities attorney to be advise you the specifics of your agreement and explore exit or other strategies. Good luck!

Fundraising Contract
New York
Can I legally raise funds through cryptocurrency for my startup?
I am an entrepreneur looking to raise funds for my startup through an Initial Coin Offering (ICO), a form of cryptocurrency crowdfunding. However, I am unsure about the legal implications and regulations surrounding this method of fundraising. I want to ensure that I am in compliance with relevant laws and regulations to avoid any legal issues in the future.
John B.
Raising funds through an ICO is legally possible —but only if you navigate securities laws, money‐transmission rules and (often) state “blue‐sky” requirements. Below is a roadmap to the U.S. legal framework you must consider; I’ve included statute citations and SEC guidance where relevant. 1. Determine Whether Your Token Is a “Security” Key Point: If your token meets the definition of an “investment contract” under U.S. law, it’s a security. Selling a security to U.S. investors without registration (or a valid exemption) violates the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Conduct a “Howey analysis” for your token. Retain counsel to document why—factually and legally—you believe it’s not a security (if that’s your position). But be prepared that the SEC will likely view it as a security offering. 2. If It’s a Security, Register or Find an Exemption Choose the exemption that best fits (e.g., 506(c) if you have only accredited investors and want to market openly). File Form D for Reg D, or engage an SEC-registered crowdfunding portal for Reg CF, or go through Form 1-A for Reg A+. Each has different reporting burdens and limitations. 3. State (“Blue‐Sky”) Securities Laws Even if you rely on a federal exemption like Reg D Rule 506, most states impose their own registration or notice filings. For each state where you permit a sale, either file the required Form U-2 (for 506 offerings) or register/claim exemption. Most startups rely on the uniform notice procedure under 506 to simplify compliance. 4. Anti-Money Laundering (AML) / Know-Your-Customer (KYC) Rules Even if you structure your ICO as a non-security (which is rare), you must still comply with anti-money-laundering laws if your token is considered a “virtual currency” under FinCEN’s rules. If you accept USD (or other fiat) in exchange for tokens, register as an MSB with FinCEN, build out an AML compliance program, obtain state money-transmitter licenses where required (e.g., New York BitLicense), and integrate a robust KYC/AML vendor at token sale.

Revenue Sharing Agreement
California
How do you fund a restaurant?
I am looking for an attorney who can help me put together restaurant business proposal to funding to expand my restaurant branch.
Russell M.
There is not a lot of detail here so I am going to assume you are not asking about how to get a small business loan, or you aren't interested or able to get SBA financing for what ever reason. If you have a successful restaurant concept, you might want to look into Regulation CF crowdfunding. I am aware of a number of food and beverage businesses that have leveraged their existing loyal and enthusiastic customer bases and a well executed financial and PR campaign to fund expansion sites.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
