Expert Lawyers for Australian Startups

Sprintlaw is an innovative online law firm that specialises in providing comprehensive legal support to startups and small businesses. We understand that the early stages of a startup can be overwhelming, with legal requirements often being one of the most daunting aspects. That’s why we offer tailored legal solutions to help you navigate the complexities of setting up and running your business, ensuring you’re compliant from day one.

Here’s how Sprintlaw can assist your startup:

Business Structuring: Whether you’re starting out as a sole trader, partnership, or company, our legal experts can advise on the best structure for your business based on your goals, and help set up the necessary documents, such as your Constitution, Company Register, and Director Agreements.

Shareholders Agreements: If you have co-founders or investors, we can draft a Shareholders Agreement that clearly outlines everyone’s rights, responsibilities, and obligations. This ensures alignment between key stakeholders and helps avoid future disputes.

Capital Raising: Planning to raise funds from investors? We can assist with preparing for a capital raise by drafting investment documents, including Term Sheets, Convertible Notes, and SAFE agreements, and ensuring that you comply with regulations governing your industry.

Intellectual Property (IP) Protection: Safeguarding your brand, products, and ideas is crucial for startups. We can help with trademarks, IP assignment, and licensing agreements to ensure that your intellectual property is fully protected and enforceable.

Compliance & Regulatory Advice: Startups are often subject to specific legal and regulatory requirements based on the industry they operate in. We can provide advice on how to remain compliant with Australian Consumer Law, privacy regulations, employment law, and more, tailored to your business model.

Employment & Contractor Agreements: As your team grows, it’s important to have robust employment contracts, contractor agreements, and policies in place. We ensure these documents are not only legally sound but also aligned with your business’s culture and needs.

Terms & Conditions: If you’re operating a digital platform, selling products online, or providing services, we can draft customized Terms & Conditions, Privacy Policies, and Website Disclaimers to protect your business from legal risks.

Ongoing Legal Support: With Sprintlaw’s membership packages, your startup can enjoy ongoing legal support at a fixed cost. This includes unlimited phone calls with our lawyers, document reviews, and access to legal templates, allowing you to focus on scaling your business while we handle your legals.

Our legal services are designed to be fast, affordable, and stress-free. We take care of the legals so you can focus on innovation and growth. Let Sprintlaw be your trusted legal partner, ensuring your startup is protected and positioned for success right from the start.

Startup lawyers are business lawyers, except they specialise in helping startups’ legal needs. This can be a bit different to a regular business’ needs as startups are still in their early stages and need a lot of legal documentation to mitigate the high risks that are commonly involved in a business’ takeoff.

We communicate with our clients via email, telephone call or video conferences to help them find exactly what they need for their business. As startup lawyers, we can be flexible to suit your business’ requirements.

Unlike many traditional law firms, we also don’t bill by the hour which means we don’t surprise you with a huge bill at the end. You’ll know exactly what to expect from the get-go with no nasty surprises.
