What is a Founders' Agreement?
A Founders' Agreement is designed to control contractual risk across Startup pre-seed. We anchor every clause in Thai statute first and layer international best practice on top — workable in onshore deals and cross-border transactions alike.
Drafting Process
Each engagement moves through five gates — intake, fact-finding call, drafting (5 business days), revision loop, and senior-partner sign-off before release. You receive both redline and clean copy.
Clauses we always include
• Governing Law & Jurisdiction (Thai court or SIAC/ICC arbitration) • Force Majeure covering pandemic, war, cyber-attack • Balanced Limitation of Liability • Tiered Dispute Resolution (Negotiation → Mediation → Arbitration) • Confidentiality surviving termination • Severability to preserve the contract if a clause is void.
Pricing & Timeline
Packages from quoted on request cover drafting plus revisions within scope; work that requires opening a data room or referencing foreign statute is billed time-and-materials at quoted on request. Standard turnaround 5 business days, rush 24-hour +50%.
Why not use a free template?
Free internet templates are typically drafted under foreign law, miss Thai-style Force Majeure, omit Stamp Duty compliance, and rarely survive bank/investor due diligence. Using the wrong template can void the entire contract.
