Virtus Law LLP

About Virtus Law LLP

Virtus Law LLP is Singapore's leading boutique law firm for startup and venture capital transactions, with a practice specifically designed around the legal cadence of high-growth technology companies — from incorporation and IP assignment through to seed fundraising, Series A and B rounds, employee share option plans (ESOPs), and venture debt facilities. The firm's partners have backgrounds in both legal practice and the startup ecosystem, giving them an understanding of founder priorities that distinguishes their advice from generalist corporate firms applying institutional frameworks to early-stage businesses. The firm advises investors as well as founders, acting for venture capital funds, family offices, and angel investors on term sheet negotiation, investment agreement documentation, and portfolio governance. This dual-sided experience gives Virtus Law a useful perspective on the typical points of contention in Singapore VC transactions and allows them to negotiate efficiently towards market-standard positions without unnecessary friction. The firm also advises on MAS licensing for fintech and digital payment companies, which is increasingly relevant as Singapore's startup ecosystem matures. Virtus Law's rates are structured to accommodate startup economics, with fixed-fee packages for common transaction types such as seed rounds and ESOP establishment. For founders building Singapore-incorporated companies and planning to raise institutional capital, Virtus Law provides the specialised knowledge and cost structure that makes it a more appropriate choice than engaging a generalist firm with no startup-specific experience.

Customer Review

"Virtus Law managed our Series A round documentation, including the shareholder agreement, investor rights agreement, and ESOP refresh. Their turnaround was fast, their advice was pragmatic, and they clearly understood what was market standard versus what was worth pushing back on. Much better experience than our previous law firm."
