What goes into a startup legal estimate?

The calculator brings together company setup and optional agreements. These categories can help you organize questions for your initial conversation with the firm.

Company formation

The calculator lists formation filing, obtaining an EIN, an operating agreement or bylaws, and initial board or member resolutions as its base-package services.

Ownership & governance

Review the listed options for founder arrangements, equity incentives, shareholders’ agreements, and investment documents. The documents you need depend on your business and the proposed arrangement.

People & operations

Explore listed employee and contractor agreements, confidentiality and IP documents, development and services agreements, website documents, and other operational needs.

Before you inquire

Prepare for a useful first conversation.

Starting a business involves more than choosing documents from a list. Your ownership, working relationships, products or services, and plans for growth help frame the legal work.

Use the calculator as a planning tool, then bring your selections and questions to the firm. A calculation does not determine which entity, tax treatment, or agreement is appropriate for your circumstances.

  • The type of business you plan to operate.
  • Your proposed owners and their roles.
  • Where you expect to form and operate the business.
  • Whether you expect to hire, use contractors, or seek investment.
  • The documents you already have and your desired timing.
Planning your next step

Startup calculator questions.

Is the calculator a final quote?

No. It is provided for estimation purposes only. The final flat fee of any package and pricing for any individual item are subject to change for any reason or no reason. Discuss the final scope and fee with the firm before proceeding.

What if my state is not listed?

The calculator provides an “Other” state option. As its description explains, the firm will provide the state filing fee during a consultation when you choose a state not listed.

Do I need every optional document?

The optional items let you explore different business needs. Selecting an item does not establish that it is suitable or necessary for your company. Discuss your ownership, workforce, contracts, and plans with the firm before choosing the final scope.

How does this differ from the startup-packages page?

The startup-packages page describes published packages and their specific inclusions. This calculator offers separate selections for a customized estimate. Compare the included work and confirm the applicable pricing with the firm.

Will my selections be sent automatically through MyCase?

No. The inquiry buttons open the firm’s general MyCase contact form. Include a summary of your selections and questions in your inquiry. Do not submit confidential information before an attorney-client relationship is established.
