Startup Lawyers

For over 25 years, our startup lawyers have been advising  startups and scaleups that have grown to become some of Australia’s most innovative businesses. Our team includes former in-house attorneys and software developers who have worked at successful new businesses and venture capital funds across the country, giving us a deep understanding of the unique challenges in this field.

Beginning as a startup ourselves, we have grown alongside many of our clients and earned their trust since the early days of our partnerships. We are proud to have supported them from their first angel investment round through to their eventual sale, ASX listing, or takeover.

We recognize that startups and scaleups face a wide range of legal issues, including, but not limited to, intellectual property protection, funding arrangements, and regulatory compliance. As seasoned startup lawyers, we provide tailored legal advice for each stage of our clients’ businesses’ early development.

Funding is imperative for the growth of startups and scaleups, necessitating assistance with negotiating and drafting investment documentation to protect the business and maintain strong stakeholder relationships. Acknowledging this need, our startup lawyers offer expert advice on venture capital, angel investments, crowdfunding, and more. 

Reaffirming that compliance with regulations and legal requirements is critical for long-term success, we see to it that our clients receive support in navigating industry-specific laws, data protection, and other obligations, minimising risks and ensuring smooth operations.

Adventum Legal is committed to empowering startups and scaleups across Australia. As trusted startup lawyers, we guide our clients through the complexities of the legal landscape so they can focus on building their businesses with confidence.
