Our Principles of Service
Business Mindset
We strive to deliver technical legal excellence with the mindset of a business person working side-by-side with our clients to bring their products and dreams to fruition.
Keep it Simple
We strive for simplicity and plain English. Contracts should be readable and make sense. On a similar note, we help establish clear transaction road maps to get from point A to a closed deal with minimum cost, time and friction.
Relationships Matter
Launching a fledgling venture takes cooperation from a wide range of partners, customers, vendors and investors. Our clients rely on us to help structure and document these relationships not only with care for the long-term interests of their venture, but also with the diplomacy required to build long-term constructive relationships.
Client Empowerment
Many of our clients are new to the world of forming commercial ventures. We take it as our responsibility to demystify legal matters — including those related to corporate formation and governance, angel and venture financing and intellectual property — and to equip our clients to make sound decisions confidently.
