Although Slicing Pie is a universal, one-size-fits-all model for determining a perfectly fair equity split, implementing it really depends on your startup's local legal and tax environment. Rules throughout the world can be extremely nuanced and it is always helpful to work with an attorney who can provide guidance.
The lawyers below have been carefully selected because they understand intimately the Slicing Pie model and are willing to help their clients implement as cleanly as possible. Altering the model only makes it less fair. These lawyers can help you make good legal and tax choices for your situation.
I’m always on the lookout for good, cutting-edge lawyers who want to become a Slicing Pie lawyer, if you are one or know one, please let me know.
