Structuring fintech businesses

In order to assist our fintech client in complying with federal and state securities, commodities, payments, lending, and other financial services laws, we not only collaborate with them in forming and registering regulated entities, we also seek to undertand their vision and help them design compliant products.

Legal opinions and memoranda

We assess the status of certain assets as securities; the status of a business as a broker-dealer, investment adviser, or investment company; the status of a business as a money services business, money transmitter, or lender; and/or whether certain business activities comply with specific provisions of the federal and state securities, commodities, payments, and lending laws

legal documentation

We prepare disclosure and subscription/customer agreements; help draft website disclosures, FAQs, and terms of use; develop privacy policies, e-sign agreements, and site user agreements; and assist with other corporate and transactional documentation.
