Starting a startup (formation, structure, founder decisions)
You've got the idea. Maybe a co-founder. Maybe even your first customers. But have you actually set up your company the right way?
Join Kristina Subbotina—startup attorney, ex-Cooley lawyer, and founder of Lexsy—for a live walkthrough of the legal foundations every founder needs before they start building.
We'll cover:
• Delaware C-Corp vs. LLC—which one and why it matters for fundraising
• Founder agreements and equity splits that won't blow up later
• IP assignment—why your company doesn't own what you think it owns
• Early hiring mistakes that create liability before you have revenue
• The 83(b) election and other "boring" filings that save you millions
• What investors actually check before your first meeting
Live Q&A at the end—bring your setup questions, co-founder dilemmas, or "did I already mess this up?" moments.
