Hey, everyone! Today I want to discuss what you need to do before meeting your lawyer for your fund!
Let’s jump right into it!
You don’t want your lawyer to teach you about funds. You should already know what an LPA and a PPM are.
Lawyers will bill you by the hour! So, if you want to save money and time, then do your homework!
My brother, a securities lawyer, made a checklist of things you should know before meeting your lawyer.
Here’s some questions you can ask yourself to prepare…
- What type of interest are you offering (debt or equity)?
- What is the value of the interest (price per unit)?
- What is the timeline for your offer?
- What will your pref, catch up, and carried interest be?
Check out my video to see the full list of these questions!

You also need to be prepared in these categories…
- Company description
- Executive Team description
- Market description
- Risk description
If you go through all these steps and have everything figured out, you could end up paying $5k instead of $30k on lawyer fees!

If these questions went way over your head, then no worries! Go back through my videos and see what you missed.
So, before meeting your lawyer for your fund, you need to be prepared! Tell your lawyer what needs to be done, not the other way around!
That’s it for today!
Thanks,
