SoleCo is not a law firm

What that means in practice

• SoleCo helps keep a company running without its founder: accounts in the company’s name, a step-in guide (printed instructions for whoever steps in), and reminders. That’s operational work, not legal work.
• Anything SoleCo generates that looks like a legal document is a draft, marked DRAFT. NOT LEGAL ADVICE. NOT EXECUTED. on every section. Don’t sign it. Your own lawyer adapts it to your state and your facts.
• SoleCo won’t tell you that you’re legally protected, and it has no chat feature that answers legal questions.
• Using SoleCo doesn’t make anyone your lawyer. SoleCo doesn’t send your documents to lawyers; you choose what to hand over, and to whom.

Two layers

Legal authority answers who can vote the stock, sign for the company, and deal with the bank. That comes from trusts, wills, powers of attorney, operating agreements, and courts, which means a lawyer you hire.

Operational access answers who can open GitHub, Stripe, the registrar, and hosting. That’s what SoleCo helps with. You need both.

Things worth knowing before you see your own lawyer

• A Delaware corporation keeps existing if its founder dies, but someone still needs legal authority to vote the founder’s shares.
• A single-member LLC depends on its operating agreement. Without successor language it can stall or dissolve.
• Under the Revised Uniform Fiduciary Access to Digital Assets Act (RUFADAA), adopted in most US states, choices you make in a platform’s own legacy tool generally take priority over a will.
• Wills become public in probate. Never put passwords in one.

Referrals

Your lawyer is a separate engagement: you hire them and pay their firm directly. SoleCo does not share legal fees and does not pay per-client referral fees to or from lawyers. Firms may pay for a listing at a flat fee unrelated to any client.
