About Us:
Fallone SV is a boutique corporate law firm that prides itself on its team’s ability to deliver top-tier legal services at scale for our clients. Our partners, John Fallone (co-founder of SendHub, a YC-backed Bay Area Startup) and Doug Colvard (author, venture fund principal and former in-house counsel for Fortune 100 and venture-backed startup companies), lead a team of highly experienced and competent legal professionals focused on these core principles:
(1) Do Good Work
(2) Be Flexible and Responsive
(3) Think Like Our Clients
As a business, Fallone SV has successfully eliminated the bloat that plagues many traditional law firms. By integrating cutting-edge technologies, eliminating our real estate footprint, and heavily investing in legal operations, we deliver a high-quality, streamlined legal service offering while significantly reducing economic waste inherent in traditional law firm models. These efficiencies translate into savings for our clients.
When you work with us, you can expect top-tier legal services; but, as our clients will attest, that X-factor we provide is what sets us apart. We understand what it is like to be in your shoes at various stages of managing a business, and know the headaches that come with it. We go the extra mile to put you in the best positions possible, and make the process as seamless as we can. When you rely on us, we deliver.

HEAR FROM OUR CLIENTS
Cade Netscher, CEO
They have gone the extra mile when building my company's legal infrastructure. They research any relevant topic in its entirety and thoroughly explain to me the legal implications, both short term, and long term, of any decision that needs to be made. Working with these two along the journey has given me the security and confidence to run a successful company.
Josh Miller, CEO
They go far and beyond for every single one of their clients. The amount of time and care they take to make sure I understand every legal process is invaluable.
Rebecca Holmes, CEO
After being my own ‘lawyer’ for too long, I’m proud to say that hiring them was the best decision I could have made. Working with people who understand what it is like to be a founder is PRICELESS.
