We're lawyers, remember? Please read this important note:

Story LLP is a law firm, and Story's lawyers built Aegis to deliver better, standard legal services at scale so founders can choose between top-tier specialized lawyers and standardized process automations that replicate those lawyers according to their needs and budget. By definition, a standardized process may not be perfect for you. Please review our [Policies page](https://story.law/policies) to better understand the difference, as well as how we use AI and how we manage conflicts, privilege, etc.

---

As a law firm, we must screen clients for conflicts of interest, and we treat all correspondence with clients seeking legal advice as privileged and confidential to the maximum extent possible in consideration of any conflicts. However, Story's law firm or our Attorney Allies do not represent you or your company as your lawyer, do not have an attorney-client relationship with you or your company, and do not provide you with legal advice absent a formal Engagement Letter signed between you and the Story LLP law firm. Please don't confuse the free knowledge we offer on this site with legal advice for you.
