Practical cases of secure formalization

Legal formalization for a growth-stage startup

If a tech startup begins closing commercial deals, hiring talent, and preparing for investment, it needs a clear legal structure from the start. In such cases, we assist with company incorporation, trademark registration, and contractual structuring so the business can grow with greater security.

Legal regularization for an SME operating without formalized contracts

When a company is already selling and has collaborators but continues operating with verbal agreements or improvised documents, it increases its exposure to risks. In these cases, we help organize the operation through clear commercial and labor contracts, giving the business owner a more secure legal foundation to continue growing.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why is a SAS better than operating as a natural person?

A SAS allows for the separation of personal and business assets, limiting the entrepreneur's liability to the amount of their contributions to the company. 2. If I have already registered my company with the Chamber of Commerce, is my trademark

2. If I have already registered my company with the Chamber of Commerce, is my trademark already protected?

No. Commercial registration protects the company name, but trademark registration with the SIC is the only way to grant exclusivity over the distinctive sign of your products or services.

Which contracts are essential to start operating a company?

We generally recommend terms and conditions for clients, contracts with key suppliers, and employment or service provision contracts for collaborators.

Can I register my trademark if someone else has a similar name?

It depends on a background search. We analyze spelling, phonetic, and visual similarities to determine the likelihood of success before making the investment.

In addition to renewing the commercial license, you must comply with tax, labor, and personal data protection obligations according to your activity.

No. It is also useful for companies that are already operating but need to organize their legal structure, formalize contracts, or protect their trademark.

What exactly does the drafting of contracts include?

The structuring of three key contractual documents for the business operation, tailored to the relationship with clients, suppliers, and collaborators.
