Porat Group is proudly based and headquartered in the Startup Nation of Israel, and therefore represents both foreign and Israeli startup companies at various stages of development, providing customized and hands-on legal advice and support for each of them.

Our law firm is able to assist startups from conception to their exit, whether through a public trade, sale or merger. We pride ourselves on our ability to take on all startup related issues, whether big or small, seriously and personally, in order to provide our clients efficient, yet personal legal services, no matter what their needs at the time may be.
<h2>How we work with startups</h2>
Porat Group encourages introductory meetings with all clients looking for a business startup lawyer in order to better understand their business, plans for the future, exit plans, and other needs. Once we understand the goals and objectives of each client, we are able to develop a work plan for all legal and business matters and solicit the experts necessary to achieve those goals.
