Start a conversation.
Tell us what you are building and where you are in it. We will tell you plainly whether this is the right firm for the work, and who to talk to if it is not.
A paragraph is enough.
The most useful first notes say what the matter is, where it stands and when it has to be done. Beyond that, what helps on the first call depends on the work.
- A deal
A financing, an acquisition, a site or power deal, a compute contract: the term sheet or the other side’s draft, and when it needs to be signed.
- A fund
The strategy, the target size, who the investors are likely to be and where the sponsor is based.
- A protocol, a token or a bank integration
The paper on the table, whether it is the bank’s, the foundation’s or your own, and where it stands.
- A funded-trader program or a trading platform
The payout formula and the user terms as they stand.
- Outside general counsel
What the company signs in a typical month, and who handles it today.
- Referring counsel
A line on the matter and on the conflict, if there is one. We take referrals from firms that are conflicted out or whose practice does not cover the matter, work beside a client’s existing counsel, and refer out when a matter is outside ours.
If you are not sure which of these it is, describe the business. We will work out the rest on the call.
