What we review
Investment agreements set the economics and control terms that follow a company through every future round. Our lawyers check the clauses that decide who gets paid, who has a say, and what happens on exit.
Liquidation preference stacking, anti-dilution formulas, and investor protective provisions are structured differently depending on the governing law and jurisdiction of incorporation. We review each clause against the law that applies to your agreement.
How the pre-money and post-money valuation translate into actual ownership.
Who gets paid first on an exit, and whether the preference is participating or non-participating.
How the investor’s stake is protected if a future round prices lower (a "down round").
What decisions require investor consent, and any board seats granted.
Valuation cap, discount rate, and what triggers conversion to equity.
Investor’s right to participate in future rounds and access company information.
Investors often require founders to re-vest unvested equity as a condition of investment.
Whether investors can force or block a sale of the company.
What the company guarantees about its financials, IP, and legal standing.
Which law governs and how investor disputes are resolved.
Investment agreements vary widely by instrument — priced equity round, SAFE, or convertible note — and by jurisdiction of incorporation. Our lawyers tailor every review to your actual agreement and governing law rather than applying a fixed template.

What clients say
5.0★ average from 5 verified reviews“We were under pressure to sign a customer agreement with a UK client within 48 hours. ContractDesk reviewed the contract the same day, flagged a few risky clauses around liability and payment terms, and suggested practical revisions that the client accepted without much negotiation. The process was smooth and the advice was genuinely commercial, not just legal.”
“As our startup started closing enterprise customers, our contracts became far more complex. ContractDesk has become our go to legal partner for reviewing MSAs, NDAs, and SaaS agreements. Their comments are easy to understand, turnaround is consistently fast, and the quality has been excellent”
“The trademark registration process was much smoother than I expected. The team first checked whether my brand name was available, explained the risks in plain English, and handled the filing end to end. They kept me updated throughout the process and were always available to answer questions. Great experience overall.”
