Legal support for startups – Startup lawyers
Before you scale, you need a solid legal framework. We’ll help you build it – from a founders’ agreement to SaaS terms and conditions. We’ve supported dozens of founders at every stage of growth.
- We assess your legal needs – we know the right questions to ask founders.
- We recommend effective legal and commercial solutions tailored to your business.
- We prepare the documents you need and show you how to use them.
Founders, these problems are holding you back.
You're unsure where you stand legally
Running a SaaS business without solid legal foundations is risky. With the right legal framework, an innovative business can scale safely. When choosing the right legal structure, there's no room for guesswork.
Whether you need to register a company, draw up a shareholders’ agreement or prepare a standard founders’ agreement, we start with an assessment of your needs, not a template.
Lawyers charge a fortune for "just-in-case" extras
Quoted tens of thousands of zlotys for startup legal support before you've earned your first zloty?
Legal support shouldn't drain your budget when you're bootstrapping. You need predictable costs, not a surprise invoice after negotiating investment terms.
You need a lawyer who understands technology
You're worried about your co-founder agreements
You want to secure investment
The investment process requires proper documentation. Without it, venture capital funds will walk away.
Improvising when reviewing investment agreements or negotiating with angel investors is costly, particularly in venture capital deals involving non-standard representations by the parties.
Free templates and AI are a gamble
Using AI to write terms and conditions is a gamble. A template from the internet won't protect you against claims.
Properly prepared legal documents don't have to cost a fortune. When your lawyer knows your industry, you don't pay them to learn it from scratch.

This won't be your typical lawyer–client relationship
What is it like to work with us?
We appreciated the firm’s proactive approach to AI matters. We got not just solutions for today, but also a roadmap for the future. Thanks to comprehensive legal protection, we could focus on what matters most — product development and acquiring clients.
No legal jargon, no unnecessary complications. It’s a bit like our app – it’s meant to be simple and to work exactly when it’s needed. I never had to explain to them that in a startup time matters and we don’t have the resources to wade through piles of paperwork.
Thanks to the lawyers at Creativa Legal, I can focus on what really matters – growing FireX and testing it in real firefighting conditions. It’s a relief knowing the legal side is handled by people who actually understand the specifics of tech projects.
My first contact with Arek was great – during our meeting he explained all the ins and outs of working together. The firm analysed our application in real depth, looking at how it works and how the terms and conditions should be drafted for us.
I highly recommend the firm to anyone building their own SaaS application who wants everything buttoned up tight! We’d worked with several firms before, but none matched Creativa Legal for professionalism, thoroughness, and communication!
The firm prepared a set of terms and conditions for us implementing the Omnibus Directive and the Digital Content Directive across our B2B and B2C services. Together, we also carried out a GDPR audit and implementation.
The biggest advantages of working with Creativa Legal are responsiveness, transparency about costs, and a comprehensive approach to business. The Creativa team is always ready to help with day-to-day matters 🙂
In working with the firm, we value not just their punctuality, clear advice and transparent communication, but also their openness to every question and the easy exchange of ideas – by email or during online meetings. We also rate highly their transparency on engagement costs and their holistic approach to our plans.
We recommend Creativa Legal to blockchain start-ups looking for lawyers who are flexible, communicative, and will guide them by the hand through the entire project.
I recommend Creativa Legal’s services to all entrepreneurs in the crypto and e-commerce industries, above all for their openness to new and unconventional solutions, their comprehensive approach, and how quick and easy it is to stay in touch with them (through online tools).
What’s more, special mention goes to how punctually the firm delivers on engagements and how committed its lawyers are to seeing them through.
The lawyers analysed every issue that mattered to us, prepared documents for the platforms, drafted agreements with our partners and subcontractors, and continue to support our companies’ operations on an ongoing basis. The firm also supported us in registering the Immobooking Foundation.
The firm’s team always responds to our needs quickly and professionally. We wholeheartedly recommend Creativa Legal to companies looking for comprehensive legal care!
Throughout our entire collaboration, the firm’s team showed an exceptional understanding of issues related to the cryptocurrency market. They were always ready to answer questions and clear up any doubts.
The firm fully understood our needs and the specifics of the project, and their experience allowed them to effectively identify and resolve all the legal and regulatory challenges related to tokenisation.
I had the pleasure of working with the team on projects related to blockchain technology, tokenisation in particular. The collaboration was top-notch – Arkadiusz’s extensive knowledge made it possible to deliver projects in this niche industry. We’ve certainly got plenty more projects ahead of us to tackle together.

Our lawyer will also handle pre-litigation matters and represent your company in disputes. For startups providing payment services, we prepare AML documentation.
Legal mistakes made at the start are like technical debt. The longer you wait, the more expensive they become. You don't need full legal support yet, but you do need three or four documents to protect your relationships with co-founders and your rights to the code. It's the cheapest insurance for your project.
Pivots are part of a startup's DNA. That's why we don't draft rigid agreements. We build flexible legal frameworks that protect the core of your company, including relationships and IP, while allowing you to change direction.
Solid agreements with developers, including the transfer of intellectual property rights, terms and conditions for your services, a privacy policy for your mobile apps, and founders’ agreements that protect the relationships between founders. At later stages, you’ll need comprehensive legal support, including investment agreements and more advanced compliance work.
One word: accountability. AI produces boilerplate text without accounting for the specifics of your business or Polish law. We provide tailored solutions and take full legal responsibility for them.
