Our team follows the latest developments in the regulatory enforcement of digital securities. To learn more about digital securities, check our CrowdCrypto Weekly Newsletter.
Initial coin offerings (ICOs) have become increasingly challenging and risky in the United States. As the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has intensified its efforts to crack down on ICOs and the upsurge of consumer fraud schemes, companies are left wondering whether there are compliant methods for conducting a token offering and if so, how?
Digital Securities Offerings allow companies to raise capital for an investment scheme or issue tokens that meet the definition of a security under U.S. securities laws. Digital securities can represent an economic interest in a company, such as shares of capital stock or membership units in an LLC; fund interests; profit sharing interests; fine art; real estate; precious metals; diamonds; and other assets.
Companies looking to conduct a DSO in the United States must determine whether to register the digital securities, or structure the offering under one of the available exemptions from registration. The JOBS Act provides for three potentially useful exemptions for DSOs (Reg CF, Reg A+, Reg D Rule 506(c)), in addition to Regulation S. Sosnow and Associates PLLC provides comprehensive legal services from planning through post-offering ensuring our clients are best positioned to fundraise.

TRUE GAULT
We had the pleasure of working with Robin and her team to conduct our legal review for our crowdfunding campaign with Indiegogo and MicroVentures. We had been through the Reg D process before, but Reg CF was entirely new to us. Robin and her team were great in explaining the process and meeting our rushed deadlines to get everything ready. I highly recommend that anyone considering an equity crowdfunding campaign use Robin as their legal team.

BECAUSE LEARNING
The process of raising capital for any startup or early stage company is fraught with complexity, challenges and details that are often largely outside of the regular day-to-day activities of the organization. In addition to this reality, the process can be demoralizing, time consuming and very expensive. In contrast, our experience with the Reg CF process, while requiring real work and preparation, has been cost effective and efficient. A huge part of that was the feedback and guidance of Robin Sosnow, Esq and her staff. Robin's legal review was detail-oriented and thorough while still fast. The back-and-forth surrounding our questions and the final review process seamless as well. I would not hesitate to recommend or hire Robin in the future.

Robin went above and beyond my expectations -- especially when she hired our company and helped us promote our crowdfunding campaign to her audience! The best JOBS Act firm in the biz!

PIXILATED
Robin Sosnow was our attorney on our crowdfunding that we did with IndieGoGo/Microventures. We were under the gun to get things going quickly and I put the pressure on. Robin and her team were terrific. They explained an area that was new to me and got all the paperwork done in record time. I'd highly recommend them for this kind of work, they are the experts.

GATHER VOICES
We had the opportunity to work with Robin Sosnow, PLCC during our recent crowdfunding venture. Robin was very professional and explained the process in detail. Any time we had any questions Robin was available and prompt on her responses. Going through a crowdfunding process is very time consuming and requires a lot of documentation. With all the efforts that Robin put in place it made our job easier to obtain all the documentation and complete the process in a timely manner.

PRIMO WIND
My company and I worked with Robin and her team on a rather complex equity crowdfunding launch. Robin clearly knows the JOBS act inside and out - and she and her team always went the extra mile to make sure everything was buttoned-up properly. She's an excellent attorney and I'll definitely be working with her again.
