Capital raising is complex

Raising capital is a crucial step in many startups’ life-cycle. It is no easy task to get investment in the first place, and when you do; the way you go about raising has enormous long-term implications for your business. If you agree to poorly drafted terms, this can have disastrous implications in terms of control of your business and the way you can run your business in the future.

Getting it wrong can cause serious problems

Failing to implement the right arrangement for your circumstances can come back to bite you. Loss of control, poorly defined payment milestones, investor fall-outs, disputes around rights and excessive warranties can create disputes down the line, inhibit a company’s growth and its chance of raising again in the future. If done correctly, raising will be the perfect kindle to your company’s fire. If done incorrectly, you may be left with nothing but ash.

We assess your circumstances and make recommendations

UX Law are experts in the capital-raising process. We can provide you with strategic legal guidance from start to finish. Every company and investor is different, so every capital raise will be different. We’ll assess your circumstances, and draft and negotiate key documents for you, including term sheets, subscription agreements and shareholder agreements. Our goals are to:

  • Set clear and defined payment milestones
  • Minimise loss of control and maintain founder power
  • Minimise liability risk and warranties

    “Sort your stuff out and move forward with a clean slate”

    Doron and UX Law have been amazing sorting out through the mess other lawyers and advisors created in our business. We had a great deal of things and an endless list to be done which Doron has fearlessly been acting towards finishing as soon as possible. Progress has been great and since we got Doron on board we managed to fix up all past issues and even move into new avenues for the business like on-boarding investors. Would highly recommend him for any startup looking to raise funds. Sort your stuff out and move forward with a clean slate rather than a mess in the backyard that will prevent you from raising capital.
