Law firm serving venture capital, growth equity, and innovation-stage companies
Gunderson Dettmer is a 201–500-person law partnership focused exclusively on venture capital, growth equity, and early-stage companies across their full lifecycle. Their tech stack—iManage, DocuSign, Dynamics 365, Azure, and Power Automate—is tuned for document-heavy transaction work and internal process automation. Hiring is accelerating with 38 open roles, nearly all in legal (mid and junior-level), suggesting scale-up of transactional capacity to handle concurrent client matters and complex financing/M&A deals.
Gunderson Dettmer advises venture capital funds, growth equity investors, and private companies from formation through maturity, as well as the public companies that emerge from the venture ecosystem. The firm operates out of Redwood City, California and has maintained exclusive focus on the innovation economy since its founding in 1995. Their service model spans venture financing, M&A, fund formation and governance, and commercial agreement negotiation. Internal challenges center on managing multiple concurrent transactional matters, navigating securities and investment regulations, and expanding into holistic company counseling beyond transaction-specific advice.
