Institutional experience, independent practice

Fatima Alloo is a California-barred attorney with a background that spans venture fund formation, startup contracts, intellectual property, and corporate governance. She has helped structure investment vehicles from the inside, advised early-stage companies on the commercial agreements that keep them running, and handled the corporate housekeeping that founders too often put off until it's expensive.

"I bring institutional legal experience to mission-driven startups — companies building cleaner products, fairer systems, and a healthier planet."

Redwoods Legal was founded on a simple premise: founders doing good work deserve the same caliber of legal counsel as any billion-dollar company — delivered with the attention and care of a boutique practice.

Counsel across the startup lifecycle

From the earliest formation documents to the fund that backs your next round, Redwoods Legal covers the legal ground startups need most — and most often overlook.

01

Fund Formation

From VC funds to crypto ventures, I've helped structure investment vehicles from the inside. I bring that experience to founders raising capital.

02

Startup Contracts

Commercial agreements, vendor contracts, service agreements — the legal plumbing that keeps startups running.

03

Intellectual Property

Patent, trademark, and trade secret strategy for startups protecting what they've built.

04

Corporate Governance

Director changes, compliance, corporate housekeeping — the unglamorous work that prevents expensive problems.

A practice rooted in purpose

"I work with startups that are building things that matter — clean food, organic products, climate solutions, health and wellness, sustainable agriculture. My clients are founders who believe business can be a force for good. I bring them the same legal infrastructure that billion-dollar companies have."

Redwoods Legal is also building toward a modern practice model — one where routine paperwork like NDAs, employment agreements, and standard policies is handled efficiently with the help of legal AI tools, freeing up time for the strategic work that actually moves a company forward: fund formation, IP strategy, corporate governance, and negotiation.
