Our Corporate & Commercial Representation

At Wave Law®, we understand what sustainable and agile technology businesses need from their legal advisors—because we’ve been there. We've worked alongside industry pioneers through booms and busts, providing strategic legal counsel at every stage: from two founders drafting their first business plan to a growing venture-backed startup securing its first funding and first major customer contract, and public companies evaluating acquisitions in emerging tech sectors.  In each such case, we provided sound advice on the corporate, IP and commercial legal underpinnings of the matters the clients were contemplating.  

When looking to make their first commercial sales, we have guided clients through the laws governing sales, warranties, and liability limitations so that they could focus on their business. We have also handled virtually every kind of commercial contract that a growing business would encounter — such as sales and distribution agreements, services agreements, loan agreements, leases, and marketing and promotion agreements.

We have also represented mature technology clients and non-technology clients on a broad range of corporate matters and commercial transactional matters, working with and advising senior management, boards of directors and members of business teams at all levels on significant transactions and day-to-day general legal matters, such as capital market transactions and investment transactions, corporate governance, compliance, corporate policies and procedures, equity compensation, and other general corporate agreements and matters.
