Recalde Law Firm
Startups Venture Capital & Growth Equity Counsel
Recalde Law Firm represents founders, growth companies, investors, and closely held businesses in transactions where structure, ownership, and control matter. Our work focuses on startup and growth-stage companies navigating equity, governance, and complex business decisions as they scale.
When a company is positioned for growth, early decisions around structure, equity, and governance have lasting consequences. We help clients establish clear frameworks at the outset—reducing friction among founders, aligning incentives, and avoiding disputes that tend to surface later under pressure.
We regularly advise on equity financings, founder arrangements, and equity compensation—areas where business decisions intersect directly with securities and regulatory considerations. Our role is to ensure transactions are executed cleanly, with an eye toward future financing, exits, and operational flexibility.
Whether you are preparing for a financing, restructuring ownership, or navigating growth-related transactions, we provide practical, execution-focused legal counsel. If timing matters and the structure needs to be right, we’re ready to step in.
