Fractional General Counsel
Senior legal strategy for startups and technology companies, without the cost of a full-time hire. One flat monthly retainer, an experienced legal mind on call.
A Legal Team, Without the Overhead
Hourly billing punishes you for growing. A full-time General Counsel is overkill until you're much larger. Panthea sits in between: a flat monthly retainer that gives founders and leadership teams direct access to senior legal strategy — contract oversight, compliance, IP protection, and AI risk — delivered predictably, without surprise invoices.
Monthly Retainer Model
A fixed monthly fee for ongoing legal oversight — contract review, quick advisory calls, and compliance checks. You get an authoritative legal mind on speed dial, priced for predictability rather than billed by the hour.
Founder & Shareholder Agreements
Define roles, equity splits, vesting schedules, and governance rules before they become contentious. A solid founder agreement sets the tone for your entire business relationship.
Investor Readiness
Prepare your legal documentation for fundraising. We help structure term sheets, review investor agreements, and ensure due diligence readiness.
Ongoing Risk & Compliance Oversight
From IP ownership gaps to AI vendor exposure, we continuously monitor the legal risks that commonly affect growing companies — catching problems before they escalate.
