Questions founders ask.
Do you work with very early-stage companies?
Yes. I advise early-stage companies on SAFEs, seed rounds, and Series A financings, as well as formation, equity grants, commercial contracts, and employment matters.
Do you represent investors as well as companies?
Yes. I advise both venture-backed companies and investment funds, subject to conflict checks.
