Start-ups/ financing and participation agreements:
We provide start-ups with the necessary experience and support. We are very familiar with the special requirements and challenges of the start-up scene, such as vesting agreements, holding structures, pool powers and special clauses in shareholder agreements. We have many years of expertise – also from the perspective of our legal advice – in all phases of a start-up: foundation, seed financing, convertible loans/SAFE agreements, A-D financing rounds and exits. We are familiar with all common forms of financing and market standards. Please contact us.
Experience shows that good preliminary coordination with your legal or tax advisor(s) helps to draft the deeds efficiently and avoid unnecessary cost traps. In the case of shareholder agreements, which are usually drawn up by legal advisors due to the existing conflicts of interest, we are also happy to provide support in advance in adapting the contracts to make them “notarizable” for upcoming and subsequent financing rounds.
In the case of larger transactions, we can speed up the notarization process with other notaries from our firm and also support ambitious schedules, e.g. through parallel notarizations (e.g. of deeds of reference).
Our back office team is also experienced in transactions and provides support in the run-up to document exchange and document management.
We help you to obtain powers of attorney and proof of representation in advance.
