    Why Tech Startups Choose Pantilimon Avocat?

    Scalable packages for startups: from legal MVP to Series A readiness. Service adapted to your stage.

    Startup Speed

    Fast Response

    Prompt communication. In tech everything moves fast - your legal must keep up with product development.

    Complete IP Protection

    360°

    Software security, trademark, copyright. Your code and brand remain protected - crucial for valuation and exit.

    GDPR fines. We implement complete data protection: policies, processes, audits, external DPO - everything included.

    Fundraising Ready

    Complete

    Legal due diligence prepared. Cap table, IP assignments, compliance docs - everything ready for investors.

    Why is Tech Law Different?

    Legal risks in tech are unique. We have specific experience with startups and scale-ups.

    GDPR & Data

    Any app processing personal data must be GDPR compliant. Fines can be very significant under EU regulations. We do complete implementation: external DPO, policies, processes, audits, ANSPDCP notifications.

    AI Regulations

    The EU AI Act is coming into force. AI models must be classified (minimal/limited/high risk) and properly documented. Large penalties for non-compliance. We help you be compliant from the start.

    Software IP

    Code is critical intellectual property. Without proper IP assignments from founders and developers, the startup cannot be sold. Investors check this in due diligence. We help you secure all IP from the beginning.
