Stock Legal covers 8 legal documents every startup needs.
Read moreEvery company is different of course, but we’ve found that for a lot of the basic documents early-stage companies need to form a company, protect confidential information, work with independent contractors, hire employees, contract with customers, and raise capital—there is a common starting point.
That’s why we’ve developed a fixed-fee billing structure for many of the standard agreements that help establish a solid legal foundation for start-ups and emerging companies. With fixed-fee billing, we can be more efficient—and you get the legal help you need—with no billing surprises. That means that you and your company can get down to business.
Based on our conversations with you, we can recommend a custom fixed-fee package that is responsive to the needs of your start-up or emerging company.
Your relationship with your customers is the lifeblood of your company. While a handshake and a warm smile are important in building trust during the contracting process, well drafted legal documents are necessary to make sure your business is protected (just in case not everyone agrees on what that handshake meant . . . ) Watch to learn more about our Contracting package.
Hiring employees is one of the most critical activities of your start-up or emerging business. Several key documents can help make sure your business is protected when it comes to employees, including a confidentiality agreement, independent contractor agreement, and an employment agreement. Because all companies with employees - no matter their size or industry - need these basic legal documents, Stock Legal offers an Employment Package for a fixed fee. Watch to learn more about our Employment Package.
Companies like yours often find themselves in a position where they have to share information that is confidential to the company in order to do business—to engage with clients, to vet potential employees, or to investigate new business ventures, just to name a few. Having sound confidentiality agreements in place can be essential to protecting your ideas; strengthening relationships with customers, partners, and employees; and helping your business grow. That’s why Stock Legal offers a fixed fee for confidentiality agreements. Watch to learn more about our Confidentiality Agreement package.
If you’re starting a company with multiple owners, or members—whether those owners are individuals or other companies—you’re probably considering forming multi-member limited liability company (MMLLC). An MMLLC is an effective way to protect the personal assets of the members, which makes it a popular choice for start-ups and new small businesses. That’s why Stock Legal offers a fixed-fee package that includes the basic tools you need to form a MMLLC. Watch to learn more about our Multi-Member Limited Liability Company and Incentive package.
If you’re starting a company with only one owner, then forming a single-member limited liability company (SMLLC) may be the best way to go. But while having just one member simplifies some things from a legal perspective, you still want to make sure you have a all the key documents necessary to establish a solid legal foundation for your SMLLC, no matter what product or service you are offering. Stock Legal can help you make sure you get your business off on the right foot. Watch to learn more about our Missouri Single Member Limited Liability Company package.
