Startups & Emerging Companies

About

Provided by Foley Hoag LLP

Our lawyers have a long track record of partnering with high growth companies and the investors powering the innovation, on their journey from idea to exit. We have a deep understanding for the passion, grit and flexibility entrepreneurs require from their partners to be successful.

We have been in the emerging company and venture capital industry since its inception. It is a core part of who we are as a firm and wasn’t something we jumped on recently as an opportunity to grow our client base. Our team has spent their careers counseling companies and funds on issues like company formation, fund formation, organizational structure, inter-founder matters, private financings and general corporate governance. 

We often hear that our clients view us as an extension of their team, and we think that is what truly sets us apart. We seek to build long-term relationships with our clients, and strive to achieve a high degree of familiarity with our client’s technology, position on deals, culture, style and as a result, we offer guidance that is tactical and forward-thinking. 

Over the years, we have learned that our clients value not only our tactical and forward-thinking guidance but also our vast network. We often leverage our extensive contacts to make key introductions and provide intelligence on “how the other side thinks.”
