Terms & Conditions

We offer LexLaunch services at prices that we believe are competitive with web-based, non-lawyer providers. Unlike some other providers, we use licensed attorneys to offer legal services to clients.

However, in order to offer cost-competitive services, Lex Launch services are offered on a “limited representation.” This means you (the organizer of the LLC, or the “client”) and Denker Law Firm LLC (the firm offering Lex Launch services) agree that the firm is performing only specific tasks, at your direction. The firm must act in your best interest and give you competent help. However, the firm DOES NOT HAVE TO GIVE MORE HELP than the firm and you agreed, and the firm DOES NOT HAVE TO HELP WITH ANY OTHER PART of your legal matter. If you request the Firm to perform additional services not covered by our agreement, we cannot agree to do them without another written agreement setting out the additional services.

While performing the limited legal services, the firm: (1) is not promising any particular outcome related to an LLC’s operation or taxation; and (2) relies entirely on your requests and/or statement of facts and will not make any independent investigation unless expressly agreed to in writing in this document.

If short-term limited representation is not reasonable, a lawyer may give advice, but will also tell you of the need to get more or other legal counsel. We, the firm, agree to help you by performing the following limited services listed below and no other service, unless we revise this agreement in writing:

FOR THE “Simple” PLAN, WE WILL:

(1) File with the appropriate agency of the state you choose, articles of organization for a single-member limited liability company.
(2) Obtain a certificate of organization from the appropriate agency of the state you choose.

FOR “Basic” PLAN AND THE “Standard” PLAN, WE WILL ALSO:

(3) If we obtain appropriate authorization, we will obtain a Federal tax identification number (or EIN Number) for the new entity.
(4) We will provide you, in electronic format, an operating agreement, suitable for signing and drafted to comply with the law of the state you choose that is applicable to a a single-member, member-managed limited liability company, which includes provisions applicable to many LLCs. Unless provided elsewhere in this agreement, we will not give you additional advice concerning the document.
(5) We will transmit copies of documents filed and obtained on behalf of the entity in steps 1-4 above, to the email address you indicate.
(6) FOR THE BASIC PLAN we will Arrange for you to meet (in person, by phone, or at your option, video conference) with one licensed attorney, for up to 15 minutes. The attorney will talk with you concerning the legal structure of the business, how to legally run your business, and (at that meeting) offer advice concerning changes or additional legal services that may be appropriate in your situation.
(7) FOR THE STANDARD PLAN we will arrange for you to meet (in person, by phone, or at your option, video conference) with two licensed attorneys, for up to 45 minutes. The attorneys will talk with you concerning your business plan, the legal structure of the business, how to legally run your business, and (at that meeting) offer advice concerning changes or additional legal services that may be appropriate in your situation.
