Practice Areas


Corporate Transactions

 

Groundswell attorneys have advised on transactions spanning friends and family financings to multibillion dollar public M&A. We add certainty and value, from LOI to high-five.


Decentralized Entities

 

We are some of the earliest builders and advisors in the Web3 ecosystem. We’re ready to help you press the “DAO” button for an existing off-chain organization, add legal armor to an on-chain one, or launch your NFT passion project.


Outside General Counsel

 

You might be a creator taking your work to market or a newly formed design agency taking on your first big client. Either way, you’re one of the millions of businesses that can’t justify hiring a full-time attorney, but need someone trusted to block and tackle critical (and often complex) legal issues. Let one of our attorneys join your team, as little or as often as you need.


Startups

 

Groundswell has worked alongside some of the world’s greatest startups, from formation to IPO. We’re ready to help your company navigate the ups, downs, and everything in between.


Tax Advisory

 

Having good tax advice, early, is critical. Groundswell has experience advising on corporate and transactional tax issues, from helping founders manage cryptocurrency holdings to counseling Fortune 50’s on mega-mergers. Let us turn your tax issue from a hurdle to a walk in the park.


Trusts + Estates

 

Builders, investors, and entrepreneurs will all benefit from solid business succession and transition planning. Groundswell attorneys can help you build and preserve your company and personal net worth, no matter how distributed or complex.
