“We totally recommend Christiana Aristidou LLC to any entrepreneur, startup, and project owner who wish to develop their ideas in a trusted, secure, and sound legal way, with ongoing and meaningful support.”

To properly develop our idea of an application rewarding responsible, sustainable, and charity activities we needed to make sure that we could rely on experienced and trusted legal advisors. As a Greek startup project, we searched for a legal advisor that could truly understand our needs, give substantial guidance on the uncertain first steps of a startup, and assist with both the EU and global prospect of our project. We found Christiana Aristidou LLC to be the ideal counsel and we are happy to say that they certainly did not disappoint.

Christiana Aristidou LLC helped us identify the legal needs of our project, considering the various stages of development (POC, MVP, etc.), and accounting for different technology options. Their assistance in this regard was critical and really showed their expertise on the interplay between law and technology. In a prompt and efficient manner, the firm advised us and prepared the necessary documents for our application, offering legal protection to the operation of our project and application. Based on the documents we have in place we have regulated our relationship with our users and partners in a business-wise sensible way while protecting our interests. We were amazed by the firm’s friendly and approachable staff and open channels of communication that allowed us to promptly follow up with our questions and additional needs. We have also engaged the firm for our intellectual property plan as they have high quality advisory services in this area.

Christiana Aristidou LLC have been exceptional advisors from the get-go. It was the combination of their professionalism, long experience in the legal industry and the start-up world, and their approachability/friendliness, that made me decide to bring the team on-board.

The team has made great work by helping us incorporate the company into a successful structure within a tight deadline. The team supported the pitching process of my startup before the Founder Institute, Berlin Chapter.

There are many challenges ahead, particularly when it comes to the legal aspects of our PropTech platform, the necessity of signing specific commercial contracts, and reviewing agreements for the design and commercialization of our platform, and capital raising. I am looking forward to working together with the team to tackle these challenges and more. I would highly recommend working together with Christiana Aristidou LLC as legal counsel for PropTech start-up projects!

More specifically, the team at Christiana Aristidou LLC advised and assisted me, as the founder of a food-tech startup, with the selection of the vehicle to develop my startup, with the structure and ownership in such a vehicle, on intellectual property and data protection matters pertaining the food-tech industry, as well as with my contractual relationship with third-party mobile app developers. Addressing these legal issues was crucial to the successful launch of my startup project, my food-tech app, from both a commercial and a corporate perspective.

When we were first introduced to Christiana Aristidou LLC Christiana told us, “we are a LawTech firm, we are disruptors, my team and I are on a mission to disrupt the legal industry”. She mostly meant in terms of quality, time- and cost-efficient delivery. The firm advises and provides solutions to our UK-based fintech startup, which offers alternative innovative solutions to invoice financing on blockchain. Among others, the firm has advised us on the nature of our project’s tokens, the prospect and particulars of holding token sales, token generation events and the legal aspects of listing on crypto exchanges. They have drafted documentation, issued legal opinions to crypto exchanges, and reviewed all our business-model related documents (such as whitepaper, pitch deck etc.). Their services are top-notch, especially since they are truly innovative, understand the technologies and possess financial industry knowledge and fintech expertise. What impressed us the most is that they can offer both fast delivery and affordable prices, something that one does not often come across in the legal industry. With their professionalism, friendly approach, passion, attentiveness, and responsiveness, they have become one of our most trusted advisors.

Setting up a company and providing shareholders agreements can be executed by any lawyer but having an actual lawyer who understands the mechanics and foundations around what is and makes a startup is completely different.
