As a first-time entrepreneur in the tech space, navigating the legal landscape was daunting. Jamie Fugitt was instrumental in getting our venture off the ground. He didn't just file our LLC paperwork; he provided strategic counsel on the corporate structure that would best position us for the angel investment we were seeking. His experience with private investment was evident when he meticulously reviewed our term sheets and helped negotiate key provisions that protected our team's equity. Later, when we had the opportunity to acquire a smaller competitor, Jamie guided us through the entire process, from due diligence to the final asset purchase agreement. His pragmatic, business-minded approach was exactly what we needed. The only reason for the 4-star rating is that during particularly busy periods, response times could occasionally stretch to 48 hours, which, while understandable, added some anxiety to our fast-paced timeline. Overall, Jamie is a trusted advisor who understands the unique challenges faced by startups in Arkansas. We wouldn't have reached this milestone without his expertise in business formation, financing, and acquisitions.
