Branches and leaves feed and nourish the tree, and the biggest tree by default is the strongest one among its peers. In business, this function is carried out by the company’s financial partners that forward money from customers to the bank account, patent attorneys ensure passive protection of rights to inventions, and licensing authorities afford opportunities for opening new markets.
The bark and trunk protect and support the tree. Daily legal support protects against “parasites” and aggressive business environments, extends the life of the company and guarantees its growth.
The root is the foundation of the tree, and the foundation of the company is not only its strong product and the team, but also a legally executed partnership between its founders. Successful business cannot be built on the principle of “we trust each other”, or “let’s register the company sometime later”. Each founder must take on a specific role and bear a clearly defined responsibility for errors.
Before planting a tree, you need to know if it can strike root in this region. An informed business decision cannot be based on a hypothesis, but on the results of an analysis or research. Legal research nourishes the business and enhances potential for its growth.

Content writing for this section began with a discussion: “Is Uber a SaaS project?” We decided that there are signs that it is, since this particular unicorn sells services using software. The Uber legal model demonstrates the project's need for first-class legal support. This Internet giant has paved ...

Statistically, only 1% of startups succeed. It seems that the stats don’t lie since Icon.Partners is approached by clients seeking advice on their projects in a pre-seed stage on a weekly basis, and we can see how poorly planned they are. Startupers tend to be ...
Testimonials
Have been working with Viacheslav and his team for 5+ years on a couple of projects. They helped me set up a proper company and cashflow structure for my business. Provided consultancy on legal and taxation questions. After all they helped me with opening my companies in 2 different jurisdictions, guided though bank accounts opening in few banks and prepared MSA templates for the specifics of our IT Services business. Viacheslav, thanks for all the help, I will keep working with your team, and recommend others to give it a try.
Viacheslav provided a quality consultation regarding the business model and legal framework for my company. The consultation helped me to take the right business decision. Recommend hiring Viacheslav and his team for the legal services.
I would like to express my gratitude and appreciation to Viacheslav and Icon.Partners for legal support services to my company. Several years ago I was looking for a professional consultant that might help me with business registration, tax optimization, and document drafting services for my projects, specifically, Terms of Use, Privacy Policy. All job-related tasks were completed efficiently. Therefore I can recommend Viacheslav as a qualified lawyer. If I could mark 10 stars I would.
Worked with Viacheslav on several projects already, incl. various agreements, terms, policies, GDPR compliance etc. Viacheslav and his team are true professionals and I would highly recommend them to any IT business.
Viacheslav is one of the best lawyers I have worked with. We received comprehensive business advice to reach our goals and to overcome business challenges – from business planning to turnaround management. He assisted us with registering our business and its maintenance, opening a corporate account, and tax consulting, as well. His team quickly got into the intricacies of our company.
