The Law Firm Boutiques That Are Dominating With Startups

These firms are getting it done for startups.

Providing legal services to startup companies is a highly specialized practice, so it doesn’t come as too much of a shock that boutique law firms that focus solely on that area are killing it with that segment. Kruze Consulting, a CPA, tax and consulting firm, has already looked at the best Biglaw firms for startups, now they’re turning their attention to the best boutiques for startups. They created their list from an analysis of over $40 million in professional services spending across 180 seed, to Series C US startups with more than $1.4BN in combined funding.

Kruze’s analysis reveals three tiers of boutiques doing startup work. At the top of the heap, tied for first are Silicon Legal Strategy and Atrium. In tier 2 are SPZ LegalVLP Law Group, and Hopkins & Carley. Receiving honorable mentions are Fathom Law, Paradigm Counsel, Silicon Counsel, Tango Law, and Capes Sokol.

Hans Kim, managing partner at Atrium, reflected on his firm’s guiding principles that have led them to success:

“Just as startups strive to use technology to drive innovation, Atrium is building technology to innovate the delivery and quality of our legal services,” said Hans Kim, Managing Partner at Atrium. “We are on a mission to better leverage our legal team’s expertise by ensuring they’re focused on the value-added client work and in turn that our technology eliminates the burdensome administrative work. With over 400 happy clients in just two years, I think we’re on to something, and we’re honored to be recognized by Kruze Consulting as a leader in the startup legal space.”

And founding partner of Silicon Legal Strategy, Andre Gharakhanian, said:

“Representing emerging tech companies is a highly specialized practice that requires deep market experience, a relentless dedication to client service and a practical, “get-the-deal-done” perspective.” said Andre Gharakhanian, Founding Partner at Silicon Legal Strategy. “Just as Kruze Consulting’s clients benefit from an intense focus on startups, Silicon Legal’s clients can count on us delivering advice that is tailored to their unique needs and informed by the most up-to-date trends in the startup ecosystem.”

Congratulations to all the firms recognized for their hard work.
