How a Computer Software Business Hired a Lawyer to Draft a Restricted Stock Agreement in California

In 2022, a business in California sought assistance with drafting a restricted stock agreement after experiencing dissatisfaction with a large law firm's services. Despite having a basic RSU grant agreement, the client felt that the necessary plan was missing, leading them to look for a more cost-effective solution without compromising on quality. They prioritized finding legal support that could create a document compliant with the existing grant notice while remaining budget-friendly. As a result, the client received six proposals from licensed attorneys, with flat fee bids ranging from $1 to $1,500, all submitted to complete the work within the requested deadline of one week.
