Frequently Asked Questions
Common Questions About Startup Advisory
Should I form a C-Corp or LLC for my startup?
If you plan to raise venture capital, a Delaware C-Corp is typically expected by investors. If you're bootstrapping or building a lifestyle business, an LLC may offer more flexibility and tax advantages. Your attorney helps you choose based on your specific plans.
Do I need a co-founder agreement?
Absolutely. A co-founder agreement addresses equity splits, vesting, roles, IP ownership, and what happens if a founder leaves. Without one, disputes can destroy the company.
When should I hire a startup attorney?
Ideally before you incorporate. Early legal counsel helps you avoid mistakes in entity selection, equity allocation, and IP assignment that are expensive or impossible to fix later.
