Built for the venture ecosystem, powered by technology.
Legal that moves at the speed of your deal.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
We are building SeedBlink Legal as a hybrid legal boutique because the best legal advice comes from combining two things that rarely sit in the same room: the speed of intelligent automations and the commercial judgment of lawyers shaped by years of hands-on deal experience.
The result is legal that is fast without losing the quality, fairly priced, and built around plain English rather than the kind of language that makes both sides of a deal reach for a translator. When everyone at the table understands what they are signing, negotiations are shorter, friction drops, and deals close.
Less legalese. More closing.
Origin story
Five years building the legal infrastructure behind SeedBlink gave us an inside view of what founders and investors actually need from a legal partner. 150+ deals closed and the EU regulatory authorization secured. SeedBlink Legal is the piece that completes the end-to-end platform, and the platform is what makes it possible.

Hybrid approach
Deliberately different from both traditional law firms and pure legal technology products. We combine AI-powered workflows with human judgment to deliver quality legal services faster and hassle-free.
Legal design
Plain English ("no legalese"), clean structure, and nothing that doesn't need to be there. The type of documents both sides can actually read and understand without a law degree.
Deal-tested
Born from 150+ venture deals across the full spectrum of what private markets demand. We have worked both sides of the table and we know what works, what breaks, and how to close efficiently.
A bigger story
SeedBlink Legal is the legal arm of SeedBlink, covering fundraising, investment syndicates, equity management, and secondaries. One ecosystem, built for the full private markets journey.
WHO WE WORK WITH
STARTUPS · EARLY STAGE
Founders raising capital
From term sheets and convertible instruments to the investor dynamics that come with a fundraising round.
We have structured multiple deals and we know how to get you to the finish line.
SCALE-UPS · GROWTH STAGE
Scaling operations
ESOPs to reward your team. Commercial contracts that sell what you've built. M&A for when growth requires a more complex transaction.
GCaaS for when you need someone who thinks like a co-founder, not just a lawyer.
ANGELS · VCs · PEs
Investors
From deal structuring to cross-border coordination and investment documentation, we handle the legal complexity that comes with deploying capital across multiple jurisdictions and deal structures.
PRACTICE AREAS
Focused expertise across the equity lifecycle — from your first raise to your exit.
VC / PE investments
Whether you're raising a round or investing, we structure deals that protect your interests.
We act for both companies seeking funding and investors looking to deploy - from term sheets to closing.
Stock option plans
Attract and retain top talent with equity incentive plans that actually work. We design, implement and manage ESOPs end-to-end, including tax structuring through our specialist partners.

Flips & redomiciliation
Relocating your company to a different jurisdiction shouldn't be a nightmare. We guide founders through corporate flips: restructuring your holding to the US, the Netherlands, the UK, Ireland, Estonia or wherever your growth takes you.
Commercial contracts
Clear contracts close faster. We draft and review commercial agreements using legal design principles; plain English, visual structure, and mechanisms that both sides can actually understand.
GCaaS - General Counsel as a Service
Your startup deserves a legal team without the overhead of hiring one. We embed as your outsourced legal department, handling everything from day-to-day questions to board-level strategy, on a predictable pricing.
DON'T TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT
Andrei guided us through the key mechanisms of the investment agreement in clear, practical terms and highlighted the provisions that truly mattered. He spotted the important issues within the structure of the agreement that could have had meaningful implications over time. He has a strong instinct for where to focus and brings a thoughtful, confident approach to challenging terms that are presented as “market standard”.
Cristi Movilă
Founder & CEO at OptiComm.AI
Most lawyers make you feel like you need another lawyer to understand your lawyer. This was the opposite for us: clear thinking, industry understanding and documents in plain English. Exactly what you need when you are moving fast as a startup.
Cosmin Magureanu
CEO at ialoc.ro
Andrei was in the room when it mattered, he understands what the other side needs to get to a yes, and he’ll tell you when you’re being unreasonable – not just when the other party is. Having someone on your side who thinks like a dealmaker and not just a legal gatekeeper changed how we approached our fundraise entirely. He’s more of a trusted advisor than outside counsel.
Bogdan Sirbu
Co-founder & CEO at Finor
Legal negotiations can drag on for weeks over language that doesn’t necessarily change the substance. Andrei’s approach is completely different. The first drafts are already balanced enough that the other side’s counsel doesn’t feel the need to redline everything. It cuts the back-and-forth dramatically.
George Dumitrascu
Co-founder & CEO at CO2Later
Andrei has been with us for all the deals we did at SeedBlink, building the legal infrastructure that supports the platform, navigating EU regulatory landscape, and sitting at the table for every strategic decision we've taken. SeedBlink Legal is the natural extension of that work. It's what happens when someone who's spent years tired of how legal services work decides to build something better: from the inside out.

MEET THE FOUNDER
Andrei is a business lawyer with over ten years of experience across M&A, corporate law, capital markets, and venture investments - first at top-tier law firms, then as Chief Legal Officer at SeedBlink, where he has been directly involved in closing over 150 deals and built the legal and regulatory infrastructure the platform runs on today.
That combination of law firm rigor and in-house experience at the center of Europe's private markets ecosystem gives him something most lawyers don't have: a clear understanding of what founders and investors actually need, not just what the law requires.

OUR APPROACH
We're not replacing lawyers with technology. We're giving lawyers superpowers
- so you get better results, faster, at a fair price.
Plain English
We draft documents designed to close deals, not create new questions. Fewer rounds of comments, less back and forth, faster closings. That's how legal should work
Hybrid by design
From first-draft generation to due diligence, technology handles the heavy lifting so lawyers can focus on what matters. Turnaround goes from weeks to days, and from days to hours, without compromising quality.
Always in your corner
Every decision, every clause, every negotiation is handled by a lawyer who understands the equity ecosystem you are operating in. Not just legally sound advice, but commercially sharp and genuinely on your side of the table.
THE QUESTIONS YOU ARE PROBABLY ASKING
We'd rather answer them here than pretend you weren't thinking them.
An independent law firm. But one that grew out of 10+ years as a lawyer, 5 years as Chief Legal Officer of SeedBlink and 150+ deals. We plan to become deeply integrated into SeedBlink’s workflows, which means that if you’re raising through the platform, managing your cap table, or setting up an ESOP, you’ll get a one-stop-shop around equity: the infrastructure, the tools, and the legal layer, all speaking the same language. Think of it as a law firm that was born inside the ecosystem it serves and then moved out, but kept the house keys.
We do have Claude subscriptions, thank you for asking But “hybrid” means we’re actually building our own automated workflows and specialized AI agents that cover the entire matter lifecycle, not just the legal drafting.
We’re not cheap – nothing good is. But consider this: is a lawyer at €1,000/hour who solves your problem in 1 hour more expensive than one at €200/hour who takes 10 hours and bills you for 20? We don’t even focus on hourly billing, because hourly billing rewards inefficiency. And honestly, do you actually care how many hours we spend on your problem, or do you care that it gets solved?
Flattering that you think it takes an army. We have a radically different way of working – no associates billing time to learn on your problems. When a matter needs additional firepower, we bring in senior professionals who are the best at what they do, on a need basis, and in a way that you won’t even notice the seams. We’re more of a Formula 1 pit crew, not your dealership car service.
Of course you can. You can also cut your own hair. The question is whether you’d do it before a job interview. AI is a powerful tool (we happen to use it every day) but a SPA or a shareholders’ agreement isn’t a template, it’s a set of decisions. The tool doesn’t know what you should decide. We do.
Fair. But have you read a traditional shareholders’ agreement recently? Forty pages of shall-notwithstanding-heretofore that even the lawyers have to re-read twice. We write documents that humans can actually understand, in structures that reduce negotiation friction. If that’s not reimagining legal, we’ll accept “mildly improved” as a compromise.
We work with anyone who deals in equity – startups, scale-ups, VCs, PEs, angels, corporate investors. If your matter involves cap tables, investment rounds, exits/acquisitions, ESOPs, or corporate restructuring, we’re in our element.
Absolutely not. The world has enough full-service law firms. Our value is that we’re deeply experienced in a few practice areas and we plan to stay that way. If you need help with maritime law or a boundary dispute with your neighbour, we’ll happily refer you to someone excellent. And then get back to closing a round.
Great and we’re pretty sure their lawyers are amazing at what they do. We’re not here to replace your general counsel or your go-to firm for everything. But if you’re raising a round, plan to do a M&A, setting up an ESOP, or doing a cross-border restructuring, you want someone who does this every week, not someone who does it twice a year and charges you for the learning curve.
We're based in Romania, but equity doesn't really care about borders and neither do we. We have partners in all major European jurisdictions, as well as in the UK and the US. So whether your flip is to Delaware, your holding is in the Netherlands, or your investors are spread across three continents, we won't be the ones slowing things down with "we'd need to check with local counsel." We are already familiar with cross-border deals and we have local counsels on speed dial.
