01 — Overview
Business advice that understands the business
Founders and owners rarely need a lawyer for the law alone. They need someone who understands the cap table, the customer contracts and the deal they are trying to get done. We start there, and keep the legal work proportionate to what is at stake.
Daniel Reyes leads the group, with Owen Hartley running corporate matters from London. We form companies, draft shareholder and commercial agreements, run acquisitions and sales, and resolve partner disputes before they reach court.

05 — FAQ
Corporate & Business questions, answered plainly
Should I form an LLC or a corporation?
It depends on how you plan to raise money and pay yourself. Founders seeking venture investment usually choose a Delaware corporation. We set out the tax and governance trade-offs before you file.
When do co-founders need a shareholder agreement?
Can you run a deal in both the US and the UK?
How are corporate matters billed?
