THE INNOVATION LAW FIRM

At the intersection of law, technology and entrepreneurship.

Pinto Legal is a boutique law firm focused on the legal needs of innovative founders.

Through our Business Foundations, Intangible Assets, Agreements and Relationships, and Compliance lines of service, we help clients secure and defend IP rights globally, raise capital, establish efficient business structures, deal with legal compliance issues, litigate disputes, and manage relationships through lean, flexible documentation and practical strategies.

We also help them successfully negotiate complex agreements, including with leading global companies like Facebook, Microsoft, Salesforce, Costco, Disney, AT&T, Pixar, Universal Music, Verizon, and many others.

In alignment with our core values, we strive to deliver in the most competent, ethical and transparent manner possible.

Our primary goal is ultimately to help founders secure enterprise value and achieve their life goals, by helping them protect, grow, and, one day, successfully exit their businesses.

OUR VALUES

Our values are the standards we strive to live by.
They define how we show up for our clients and for each other on a daily basis.
They act as our guiding stars when things get busy and uncertain.
They are the principles we go to over and over, as we explore new ways to create value for, and build meaningful relationships with, our clients, staff and partners.
Everything we do is ultimately an outgrowth of our four core values:

A Learning Mindset. We’re committed to learning and delivering the highest impact, value-producing legal solutions to help entrepreneurs create enterprise value in today’s fast paced, complex, and rapidly changing economy.

Integrity in Relationships. Integrity refers to the alignment between our words and actions. It means that we strive to “walk the talk” and remain true to our promises.

Radical Transparency. We believe in open and honest communication. This allows us to work beyond silos, and attack complex problems in a collaborative way between our professionals, partners, and clients in a joint effort to create the most value.

Efficient Execution. We always seek to deliver as efficiently as possible. This requires simplifying and streamlining at every turn, iterating often, and constantly re-focusing on priorities as we explore all available options and strategies.

On Injustice with Justice Michael P. Donnelly

Can AI Improve the Justice System?

A fairer legal system may need to be a little less human.

The system for granting asylum in the U.S. has long been a political point of contention. Democrats and Republicans debate how liberal or restrictive its rules should be, but evidence suggests that the fate of some asylum seekers may be less influenced by the rules than by something far more arbitrary: the judge they’re assigned.
