Testimonials

They trusted us — and their stories speak for themselves.

What struck me about Jaberson was the speed with which they got back to me. And above all, where everyone else told me it was impossible, they proved their ability to structure a complete fund-raising operation and implement it in record time.

Grégoire Dupré

President, Abelio

I was assisted by JABERSON in drafting a term sheet for a private equity capital increase, and I can only recommend their expertise. Their team demonstrated an excellent understanding of the strategic and legal issues at stake, while being extremely responsive and educational. Thanks to their rigorous support, we were able to secure clear and balanced terms and conditions, which are essential for further negotiations with investors. A trusted partner at a key stage in our company's development.

Frequently Asked
Questions

How do you structure balanced, lasting agreements when raising funds?

With our in-depth knowledge of market practices, our lawyers can help you secure your rights under the shareholders' agreement (governance, liquidity, accretion clauses, etc.), while ensuring that your long-term vision is preserved. Our experience in the field helps you to negotiate effectively, while laying the foundations for a lasting relationship with funds.

Why use a multidisciplinary firm?

Raising capital raises legal, tax, employment and estate issues.
At Jaberson, our lawyers work together to build coherent solutions, reduce delays and avoid blind spots, in conjunction with your other advisors (chartered accountant, investment banker, M&AA, etc.).

When should a fundraising lawyer be called in?

When preparing the LOI or the termsheet, a lawyer can help you structure the legal aspects of the exercise, negotiate the shareholders' agreement and anticipate the tax and social impacts.
By intervening upstream, you can avoid bottlenecks and safeguard your interests over the long term.

What are the risks involved in raising capital?

Excessive dilution, loss of control, misalignment of founders and investors... An ill-prepared takeover can jeopardize your company's future.
Our lawyers identify areas of friction, anticipate imbalances in governance and help you organize key decisions.

What happens after the fundraising?

Closing is only one step. We remain at your side to support governance, monitor the application of the shareholders' agreement and prepare for the next steps: raising capital, external growth or exit.
