What it is

Fundraising legal costs are normally quoted as a range and delivered as an invoice at the top of it. The variable is not the drafting, it is the negotiation, and the hours spent arguing over terms that were never going to move.

This service prices the whole round at one number. A corporate lawyer drafts your instruments, runs the negotiation with investor counsel, manages the signature process, and updates your cap table when the money lands.

It covers SAFEs and convertible notes at any size, and priced equity rounds up to five million dollars. Above that, book a strategy call and we will quote the round specifically.

What you receive

  • Term sheet review with a written note on every clause worth negotiating
  • Drafted instruments: SAFE, convertible note or full priced round document set
  • Board and shareholder consents authorising the raise
  • Negotiation with investor counsel through to agreed final form
  • Signature coordination and a closing checklist tracked to completion
  • Post-close cap table update and a copy of the executed document set

Timeline estimate

10 business days

  1. D+0You buy the service and send your instructions. A conflict check runs automatically and your matter is opened.
  2. D+1A qualified lawyer is assigned, confirms scope in writing and tells you if anything is missing. The delivery date is fixed at this point.
  3. DeliveryThe work lands on the agreed date, with a call to walk through it. Published turnaround for this service is 10 business days, measured from complete instructions.

The clock starts when we have everything we asked for. If a document is outstanding, your lawyer tells you the same day rather than letting the deadline slide quietly.

Who this is for

This service is a fit if all of the following are true. If one is not, buy a strategy call instead and a lawyer will point you to the right route.

  • You are raising under five million dollars in this round
  • Your company is already incorporated with a clean share register
  • You have a lead investor or a term sheet, or you are issuing on standard SAFE terms
  • You are not raising through a public offering or a regulated crowdfunding platform

Questions people ask before buying

Is the fee the same whether I raise 200 thousand or 4 million?

Yes. The fee is fixed at 2,400 dollars for any round under five million dollars. A larger raise usually means harder negotiation, and that risk sits with us rather than with you.

What if the round falls through?

You pay for the work done. If the raise collapses before signature, we invoice the stage reached against a published schedule and the drafted documents remain yours to use in a later round.

Do you act for the investors as well?

No. We act for the company only. Acting for both sides of a financing is a conflict, and we will decline the instruction rather than manage around it.

Can you handle a rolling raise with multiple closes?

Yes. Up to four separate closes on the same instrument are included. Beyond that we agree an additional per-close fee in advance.

How does this work with my existing cap table software?

We work in Carta, Pulley and spreadsheets. Give your lawyer view access at kickoff and the post-close entries are made for you rather than handed back as a task.
