"Working with Foundd Legal was a fantastic experience- thus far they have helped me with both legal templates as well as custom contracts- every experience has exceeded my expectations. I now feel completely covered and much more confident in growing my business. "

Jillian D., Jillian Dinkel Designs

"We took advantage of the free consultation to review our existing website Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy as we know they were dated. The feedback was extremely valuable. We ended up purchasing 2 new templates at a fraction of the cost of what it would have cost to use a law firm. Thanks for your help Riz. "

Mark N.

"Foundd Legal is an AMAZING resource! The templates are quality, easy to edit and very thorough (and a great price)! Riz was a delight to work with too when I had to get a customised contract. Thank you!! "
