Services

Entity Formation / Incorporation
I help founders and business owners choose and form the right legal structure for their ventures. Services include preparing and filing formation documents, drafting initial organizational resolutions, properly issuing founder equity interests, and creating tailored governance documents such as operating agreements or bylaws. I ensure your company is properly structured from day one and ready for growth and investment.
Venture Financing
I advise startups and investors on all aspects of venture financings. Services include drafting and negotiating term sheets, SAFEs, convertible notes, and NVCA financing documents, as well as managing cap tables, investor relations and regulatory compliance. I help ensure every venture financing is structured efficiently and positions the company for future long-term success.
M&A Transactions
I advise buyers and sellers on mergers, acquisitions, and strategic exits. Services include due diligence, deal structuring and negotiation, drafting definitive agreements, and post-closing integration, ensuring transactions are efficient, compliant, and aligned with your strategic and financial objectives.

“Gatherline is dedicated to simplifying the process of finding safe housing for seasonal workers while fostering a sense of community. In the early stages of Gatherline, we needed a legal framework established, including our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. Alexander's approach stood out because he didn't just quote a price; he actively listened to our vision and offered valuable insights and strategies that we hadn't considered. This initial consultation alone demonstrated his commitment to adding immediate value to our company.
