The traditional law firm model just doesn’t work for early-stage and growth companies as exorbitant rates force founders to take on excess risk by rationing legal spend or even negotiating contracts without legal review, and in-house counsel command some of the largest FTE cost and often merely "manage" law firms, outsourcing much of the day-to-day legal work.

We’ve built a legal solution with affordable, customizable pricing models to better suit the needs of early-stage and growth companies.
