SeedLegals is where startups and small businesses get their legal work done and their funding over the line.
We handle the documents and admin that slow founders down – from contracts and cap tables to funding rounds and share option schemes. By automating repeatable legal work, SeedLegals helps companies move faster and spend thousands less on traditional lawyers and accountants.
For founders starting a company in the US, SeedLegals handles the process of forming a Delaware C-Corp. Founders with an existing US LLC can also convert it into the investor-ready structure typically needed to raise venture capital.
For founders raising investment, our funding tools cover everything from one-off SEIS/EIS investments and top-ups to full funding rounds. Founders can prepare documents, manage investors and move their raise forward in one place.
SeedLegals also makes it easy for investors to create, sign and store investment documents, manage portfolios, model exit scenarios, get SEIS/EIS tax relief compliance documentation sorted and store everything in one place.
SeedLegals operates in the UK, US, France and Ireland, with offices in London, New York and Paris.

For almost a century, regulatory barriers made it difficult for individuals to invest in private markets, giving billion-dollar institutions preferred access. The result has been that most investors have been limited to public markets and excluded from private investments—ranging from real estate to venture capital. Technology is finally disrupting this status quo.
Enter: Fundrise, America’s largest direct-to-consumer private markets manager. We built our technology platform to bridge the barrier. Software allows us to achieve the scale of institutions without the bureaucracy. Combining our technology and investment expertise, we are pioneering a new model to build you a better portfolio.
