About Us
Attorneys. Partners. Peers.
At McGovern Law, our philosophy is simple: deliver experienced, practical legal counsel, efficiently and effectively, while keeping ourselves accessible and responsive to our clients. Our attorneys bring a unique set of skills and experience to the practice of law because not only have we counseled countless startups, established businesses, investors, and funds, but each of us has also been involved first-hand in starting and running startups and other businesses. As a result, we understand the impact legal counsel and representation has on the way your business operates and succeeds because we’ve been there ourselves. We understand how unpredictable professional expenses can strain your bottom line and wreak havoc on your budget because we’ve dealt with it first-hand. We understand the critical importance of working closely with you and your investors and partners because we’ve been there.
We aim to redefine the way firms and attorneys provide legal counsel to startups and established businesses, funds and venture capitalists, investors, real estate developers, and industry professionals. Our goal is to provide a comprehensive, no-nonsense, one-stop shop solution for our clients.

Testimonials
I run a securities trading publication and was getting ready to launch when someone flagged me. As a result, the securities board got involved and halted our company’s operations. Despite the complex nature of our case, Mike McGovern and his team got us back up and running in no time. Mike also kept me in the loop on all updates along the way. I have had other securities attorneys in the past and Mike is the best, hands down, I have had the pleasure of working with. He and his team are knowledgeable as well as diligent in their work. Excellent professionalism. He works hard for you. I would recommend him and his team to anyone.
For the past six years, Mike McGovern has been general counsel for two enterprises for which I am co-founder and CEO. He consistently provides practical, efficient, and calculated legal advice. The McGovern Law team continues to impress me with their tactful negotiation abilities and have skillfully saved one of our companies from hostile takeover. They have represented us in multiple rounds of investor capital financing and handle the entire process from start to finish with white-glove service.
Mike McGovern and his team have been one of our key success factors in taking our concept through execution. Their toolbox that we value so highly includes solid temperaments, measured sound advice, an efficient approach and engaging personalities. Regardless of our size relative to other clients, Mike McGovern has always been accessible and made us a priority in his practice. McGovern Law is driven by a desire to get deals done, rather than collect billable hours. They’re one of the good ones.
We’ve worked with Mike McGovern and his team for the better part of the last four years and we can’t recommend them enough. They helped us grow from a small, scrappy startup to a full-size organization and ultimately oversaw our successful and positive acquisition by a larger organization. Their dedication to transparency and integrity is first class, as is their work product as legal professionals. I would happily encourage anyone considering legal services to work with the McGovern Law team.
McGovern Law attorneys have been working with Scribe and its founder team since its earliest days of inception. They have provided sound, measured, practical legal counsel for us, while adding a personal touch along the way. They make otherwise complex matters and transactions feel simple and seamless. McGovern Law has made it a point to be accessible and responsive, and their approach makes them valuable members of the team. I cannot recommend them enough.
