Lawyers who get SaaS
You should not have to explain ARR, churn, or a usage-based model to your counsel. We already speak it. That means faster advice and fewer billable hours wasted on background.

Legal counsel built for SaaS companies.
Austlii works with founders and SaaS leaders across Europe. We speak both law and product. From the first incorporation to the day you exit, we run the legal layer so your team keeps shipping. One counsel for the whole company lifecycle. No handoffs between firms, no gaps between matters.
❯ Why founders call us
The legal gaps that slow SaaS teams down.
Most SaaS founders hit the same walls. Generalist lawyers do not know the business model. Contracts get drafted in a rush. Then a deal or a raise exposes the cracks. We close those gaps before they cost you. Here is where we step in.
02
Contracts that hold up
A weak IP clause or a vague SLA can sink a deal. We draft customer agreements, vendor terms, and data deals that pass investor and enterprise review the first time.
03
One clear roadmap
No more piecemeal advice. We map the legal steps from seed through each raise to exit. You always know what comes next and why it matters.
