@golamkabir Hahaha that’s what got me thinking about it.
I’m negotiating against this lawyer for a month who is trying to hit his fee cap and then he emails me the invoice. Whattt
Hear me out.. everyone should pay their own legal fees? When did it become the norm that startups pay their own legal legal fees of investors ? So weird.
@aakashgupta Well a D&O policy will now fully cover the legal fees since they’re personally named. And theyll just battle it out in court while lawyers make millions.
@patmatthews I think it’s mostly so the investors don’t have to pay for it out of management fee, comes from investment amount. Just zooming out - weird to put on startups.
