Managing Partner
Corporate Formation and Governance
We help founders and established companies with entity formation, ownership arrangements, and corporate governance. Our work covers the documents and approvals a business needs as it forms, adds owners, issues equity, or prepares for a transaction.
For existing companies, we review governing documents and corporate records, address gaps in documentation, and help maintain approvals as the business changes. Governance work can also support preparation for a financing, acquisition, or sale.
Our work includes
- Entity selection and formation
- Founder equity and ownership
- Operating agreements and bylaws
- Board and stockholder approvals
- Corporate records maintenance
- Preparation for diligence
Who we work with
Founders forming a company, businesses adding owners or issuing equity, and established companies preparing their records for a financing or transaction.
