The documents that govern how founders, partners, and shareholders work together matter as much as any contract you’d sign with an outside vendor. Most businesses sign them too late, or not at all, trusting goodwill to cover what a proper agreement should. As your business agreements advocate in Ahmedabad, Raval Law Associates drafts these documents early, while everyone still agrees on the basics, so they actually hold up later if anyone disagrees. Call us at +91 99099 57585 and tell us about your business and the people involved.
These agreements protect relationships, not just transactions, and drafting them needs to reflect that. We build each one around how your specific business actually works.
Email us at legal@ravallawassociates.com with details about your business and the people involved, and we’ll tell you exactly which agreement you need and what it should say.
Yes, and the trust between you now is exactly why it’s the right time to sign one. Founders’ agreements exist for the disagreements nobody expects at the start, like one founder wanting to leave early, or disputes over who actually contributed what. Some of India’s most public startup disputes trace back to founders who agreed on the vision but never wrote down what happens when things go wrong. We draft this while everyone’s still aligned, not after a disagreement has already started.
Not entirely on its own. A founders’ agreement binds the founders personally, but share-related terms, like vesting and buy-back rights, only bind the company once they’re also mirrored into your Articles of Association. Many founders skip this step and discover the gap only when a departing co-founder refuses to honor it. We make sure your share terms actually carry through to the company’s constitutional documents, not just the private agreement between you.
An MOU generally records intent and the broad shape of a deal, often before the parties have worked out every detail. A binding agreement creates enforceable obligations once it’s signed. Courts look at the actual substance and language used, not just the title, to decide which one you’ve really created. We draft accordingly, sometimes deliberately keeping a document non-binding at an early stage, and tell you clearly when your situation has moved past that point and needs a real contract instead.
Advocate Parth Raval and Advocate Akanksha Raval each bring 9 years of experience drafting business agreements for founders, partners, and shareholders in Ahmedabad. That experience covers what actually matters here:
You’ll work directly with one of the founding advocates on your agreement, not a junior associate filling in a generic template.
