Michelle T.
I am an experienced, well-rounded attorney with a background specializing in trusts and estates, contracts and business law. I have extensive experience working with simple contracts all the way up to multi-million dollar deals.
"Michelle drafted an excellent and unique Post Nuptial agreement which outlines a very specific "process" that will be used to divide assets in the event of divorce. Since assets can change value daily, traditional "splitting an asset list" methods are often outdated within a week of signing. Michelle rose to the challenge at a very reasonable price. Other, "meter man" attorneys would have charged at least 5x more. I highly recommend Michelle!"
Daniel K.
I graduated from Yale University magna cum laude, served as a Fulbright Scholar in Italy and attended UC Berkeley School of Law. In 2023, I was named a "Legal Visionary" by the Los Angeles Times. I have broad experience in corporate transactions and in serving as outside general counsel to clients. I started my legal career in Silicon Valley and Hong Kong working on large equity and debt financings and matters for private wealth clients. After returning home to Los Angeles, I advised startup companies with formations, acquisitions and day-to-day matters such as sales contracts and licensing. More recently, I have focused on data, IT and SaaS contracts for both providers and customers. My clients include NASDAQ-listed companies, a top ranked children’s hospital and local startups.
"Daniel assisted me with a project that had a relatively quick turnaround and provided thoughtful and thorough feedback. Highly recommend!"

Common Stock Purchase Agreement
Texas
What are the key provisions to include in a Common Stock Purchase Agreement?
I am in the process of negotiating a Common Stock Purchase Agreement with a potential investor for my startup, and I would like to understand the essential provisions that should be included in the agreement to protect both parties' interests, such as the purchase price, number of shares, representations and warranties, conditions precedent, and any restrictions on transferability or voting rights.
Darryl S.
The specific terms (such as whether to give any voting or veto rights for example) will depend on factors like your company's stage, the investor's sophistication level, and the investment amount or percentage of the company the investor is acquiring. Consider having experienced counsel review the agreement, as the long-term implications of certain provisions can significantly impact your company's future governance, ability to raise funds and options to bring on other investors or key employees. Early stage companies often have significant restrictions on transferability of the stock, a ROFR clause and claw-back options. The provisions you mention are also required as they are core to the business terms. Hope this is helpful. The classic lawyer answer is "It depends" and that is true here.

SAFE Note
Connecticut
When to use a SAFE Note?
I am a small business owner looking to raise funds for my business. I have been exploring different financing options, and I have recently come across SAFE Notes. I'm not sure when to use a SAFE Note, and how it could benefit my business. I am hoping to learn more about how SAFE Notes work and when they should be used.

SAFEs are used by growth capital technology startups who are planning to sell multiple rounds of preferred stock to investors. A SAFE is a stock warrant, meaning, the pre-purchase of a later issuance of stock. If you are planning to sell multiple rounds of preferred stock to investors, then a SAFE is a quick way to raise smaller amounts of capital in advance of selling a big preferred stock round.

Stock Purchase Agreement
Washington
Stock purchase agreement and termination rights?
I am currently a shareholder in a startup company and I am looking to purchase additional stock in the company. I am concerned about the termination rights associated with the stock purchase agreement, as I want to ensure that I am protected in the event of a dispute or termination of the agreement. I am looking for advice from a lawyer to ensure that my rights and interests are protected.

You can submit a request for a review through ContractsCounsel and WA State attorneys will bid on your job. You can also find WA State attorneys through wsba.org. I'm not able to review this kind of agreement myself, but my words of advice are to not put all your investment eggs in one basket - diversify your investments into real estate, stable and secure stock, etc. Too many people put all their money into the company they work for, and lose everything when their company goes bankrupt.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
