Distinctive Service.

Aligned Incentives.

Unrivaled Strategic Value.

NextGen Law is built to serve entrepreneurs and small business owners: from first generation to the next.

Distinctive Service

NextGen Law is a boutique, tech-enabled, and remote-first law firm—bootstrapped from the ground up like the clients it serves. Our practice is focused on one thing: providing distinctive legal advice to current and future entrepreneurial business owners.

Core services:

Small Business M&A
Corporate Formation and Structuring
Raising Capital from Investors

We are more than “just” lawyers. While we have practiced Big Law at the highest levels, we are also former McKinsey management consultants and Goldman Sachs investment bankers. We are former 8th-grade teachers and current law professors. We have (quite literally) been in the C-Suite with Fortune 100 firms weighing bet-the-company decisions. We bring all of ourselves, including this experience, to each and every client.

Aligned Incentives

We structure our billing arrangements so that we can truly partner with our clients. Our fees are (with rare exceptions):

Flat
Weighted toward closing
Appropriately forgiven to reflect the realities of busted deals

Our advice is not templated. It is tailored. Your deal will receive the full attention of our entire team to receive the bespoke service it deserves.

Unrivaled Strategic Value

We let our work speak for itself.
‍
We are humbled and driven by our clients, and we truly treasure their ongoing confidence.

Instrumental Feedback and Recommendations

NextGen Law has been instrumental in navigating the complexities of legal requirements for starting our company.

Throughout our collaboration, our company received continuous feedback and actionable recommendations. NexGen Law's efficiency and effectiveness have always kept us informed and confident throughout our progress. NextGen Law sets the bar high, and we look forward to continuing our partnership

Helped Mitigate Financial Concern With Flexible Fees

As a self-funded searcher, managing expenses has been top of mind during my search. NextGen Law’s flexibility and approach to fee structuring have helped to mitigate concerns and are one of many reasons I’ve recommended them to friends as they start their own search processes.

An Invaluable Resource & Partner

NextGen Law has been an invaluable resource and partner during my search. In the first month of working together, they already reviewed several IOIs and LOIs with me. In each case, they have offered valuable improvements and explained the rationales in simplistic language. They genuinely want to add value and to help clients succeed. I highly recommend working with NextGen Law, and I am excited to see what they will continue to do for the ETA ecosystem.

Service is Unmatched

NextGen Law's service is unmatched. They are very professional, prompt, timely, supportive, and very responsive. As first-time business buyers, having an attorney with extensive M&A experience guide us throughout the due diligence process was invaluable. They assisted us in drafting a letter of intent (LOI) for our deal, provided advice and guidance throughout the negotiation process, and reviewed company contracts. Beyond their professional abilities, I really enjoyed working with the team on a personal level and appreciated their genuine interest in our success.

More Than Just a “Legal Advisor”

NextGen Law’s legal, consulting, and personal SMB search experience give them a unique and invaluable perspective within the entrepreneurship through acquisition (ETA) space. Labeling them as merely “legal advisors” does not do them justice – their guidance, insights, and encouragement have been pivotal to my search, far beyond their handling of the legal aspects. NextGen Law has truly been a partner to me throughout my search process, and I have recommended the firm to each of my friends who have embarked on their own ETA endeavors.

Invested in my success rather than their pocketbook

NextGen Law is not your typical law firm looking to bill you endless hours for low value templated advice you can get from doing your own homework. They are an experienced deal team member who will provide you with the right base legal documents, plus detailed, specific advice on your situation and all its intricacies. I've found them to be invested in my success rather than their pocketbook, and they have provided expert level advice and guidance. They are part of my deal team going forwards.
