April kicks off with jokes, but your contracts shouldn’t be one of them. It’s the season of harmless pranks, but when something unexpected shows up in your investment docs, it’s not so funny. That’s why now’s a good time to talk about a clause that’s easy to overlook but critical when things go sideways: limitation of liability.
You don’t raise a Series A to play it safe. You raise it to grow fast, sell more, and prove you’re ready to conquer the world. But bigger goals bring bigger challenges, and your legal setup needs to support growth, not block it.
Legal services can feel like a black hole for many startups: unclear costs, surprise invoices, and expensive 5-minute calls. This uncertainty is a distraction.
