“Mateo is the first outside GC I’ve worked with who writes better indemnity language than the other side’s big-firm counsel. We had no idea what an MSA should actually look like and he never made us feel that way.”

“The portal alone was worth it. I stopped waking up at 3am trying to remember what the cap table actually looked like after the last grant batch. It was just... there, in a tab.”

“We engaged Mateo for our Series A IP cleanup, then three years later for our Series B diligence. Same patience, same honest math. I didn’t even look at other firms the second time.”

“Our term sheet wasn’t the highest. Mateo’s redline of the protective provisions is apparently what got our preferred lead investor over the line. He knew what their counsel cared about before they sent the markup.”

“I was 11 months out from my Series A when we first talked. Mateo never once pressured me to engage before I was ready. That’s rare in big-law adjacent practice.”

“First enterprise customer, two-co-founder team, Series A budget stress. Mateo modeled every concession in plain English and made us feel like adults. MSA signed in 21 days.”
