We founded Decrypted as a new type of legal services provider. We’re founded by former “Big Law” attorneys from Cooley LLP’s Silicon Valley office who sensed there must be a better way to serve entrepreneurs.

From our experience in Big Law, we noticed recurring client concerns.  Most entrepreneurs complain that contacting an attorney feels like an emergency room visit. That the services are ambiguous and confusing. That they struggle with knowing the risks or the benefits of preventative legal care until it is too late. While many attorneys typically over promise and under deliver, they still manage to drop off surprisingly high bills after each consultation or project.

We designed Decrypted differently. Decrypted runs more like a business and less like a law firm. We prioritize being founder friendly.  We are innovative and proactive. Our pricing is transparent. We provide subscription plans for those seeking ongoing legal guidance, without uncertainty about monthly cost. We use upfront fixed-fee pricing for your specific projects. We readily provide “bundles" for many popular and standard services.

We also use the same tech stack as you, combined with today’s best legal tech tools - Zoom, Dropbox, Asana, Slack, Calendly, Google Workspace, DocuSign, Stripe, and many more - to make our communication and partnership as seamless and effective as possible. Although many attorneys focus on reasons why you can’t do something, we focus on finding innovative solutions and “yes if” answers to facilitate your ideas and ambitions. We don’t bury you in legalese. We tell you in plain English which risks are worth taking and which aren’t.  Which risks require immediate attention and which can wait.

We’re here to be your confidante and ally. To be someone who can help you navigate the legal landscape so that when you’re lost or unsure, we can guide you down the right path. Not someone you reluctantly call when you are out of options.
