There used to be a form every now and then to ask to be in "open" office hours but the only one I see now is for females only.
I read the FAQs and can't find anything. Any insight?
Recently in the past, I have ended up in some pretty bad relationships, getting ideas and hard work stolen by people who would try to turn me into their lowly paid employee with no equity. I have dug myself out of some horrible pits and made great progress in my startup. I found a guy that shares my goals and seems pretty honest. Our skills compensate each other very well.
However, I'm still paranoid because of getting burned so bad. I've wasted well over two years because of bad relationships. I want to at least get some kind of basic contract down. What have you guys done on your pre-money arrangements with other co-founders? I'm going to call my normal lawyer tomorrow, but he mostly does criminal defense stuff, so I want other options.
I've honestly burned through most of my savings that I had from a successful business years ago, with these previous startups and a terrible lawsuit. I can only spend maybe a few hundred dollars at most.
Both of us have some software built and a decent amount of time spent on seperate stuff. There are no patents. The company is an LLC registered in Nevada a few months ago.
Please help me with any advice you can give. I can't bear to get screwed over again. I'll probably end up going postal if I do. :)
Thank you for your advice,
-Zak
