Just curious, how difficult was it for you to find a qualified attorney, and how much did you spend? (I tried this approach once, but the legal advice was low quality and very basic.)
- gkop 11y agoA friend referred me to an attorney at a well-known SV firm. She gave me a free consultation back and forth over email. By my own judgement as well as that of the founders and attorneys of my new company, the advice was good. It covered both my negotiation with the company as well as my personal tax planning and accounted for various possible outcomes. Following the advice, I learned more of the nitty gritty financial details of the company, got a calculated split of ISOs and NSOs (to early exercise), and also a decent cash bonus.
