Brief Descriptions of Our Token Launch and Legal Opinions Services
Token Regulatory Assessment
Every successful token launch starts with a clear understanding of its legal classification. We assess your token’s features, utility, and distribution model against UAE and international regulations to determine whether it qualifies as a utility token, governance token, security, or hybrid. This assessment shapes your entire legal and commercial strategy, ensuring your project can operate without regulatory surprises.
Whitepaper Review and Legal Analysis
Your whitepaper is more than a marketing document, it’s a representation of your project. We conduct a line-by-line review to identify and resolve legal risks, misleading claims, or compliance gaps. The result is a legally sound, investor-ready document that aligns with regulatory standards while preserving your project’s vision and competitive edge.
Token Issuer Structuring - SPV
Launching a token often requires a dedicated Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) or foundation for issuance. We design and register your token issuer in the relevant offshore jurisdictions, meeting governance, tax, and operational requirements. This structure protects founders, supports investor onboarding, and creates a compliant foundation for token sales and listings.
Exchange-Accepted Legal Opinions
Tier-1 exchanges require jurisdiction-specific legal opinions before listing a token. We draft legal opinions that are 100% accepted by leading global exchanges, giving you the certainty to proceed with listings, fundraising, and liquidity provision. Our documents clearly outline token classification, compliance position, and regulatory treatment.
Multi-Jurisdictional Legal Analysis
Global token projects must comply with multiple regulatory regimes. We prepare comprehensive legal mappings covering the UAE and key international markets, helping founders anticipate obligations, avoid enforcement actions, and structure operations for cross-border scalability.
Ongoing Legal Support Post-Launch
A token’s legal journey doesn’t end at launch. We provide ongoing legal counsel for governance updates, token holder communications, secondary market trading, and evolving regulatory requirements. This ensures your token remains compliant and resilient as regulations change.

What is a token legal opinion and why do I need one?
A token legal opinion is a legal document issued by a qualified law firm that outlines the classification and regulatory status of your token in a specific jurisdiction. It’s required by most crypto exchanges before listing and is critical for avoiding regulatory issues, securing investor confidence, and ensuring long-term scalability.
Which jurisdictions are best for token issuance?
It depends on your token model, investor profile, and exchange targets. Common choices include offshore legal structures combined with onshore DevCo entities for operations.
What is the process for obtaining a token legal opinion?
The process involves reviewing your whitepaper, tokenomics, and distribution model, assessing your project under applicable UAE and international laws, and preparing a formal legal opinion. We also structure or review your token issuance entity to ensure compliance before the opinion is issued.
Will Tier-1 exchanges accept your token legal opinion?
Yes. Our token legal opinions have a 100% acceptance rate with Tier-1 global crypto exchanges. We achieve this by adhering to exchange-specific standards, ensuring jurisdictional authority, and addressing all technical and compliance requirements upfront.
Do I need a legal opinion if my token is only a utility token?
Yes. Centralized Tier-1 exchanges often require a legal opinion to confirm that it does not qualify as a security or payment token.
Can you provide multi-jurisdictional token legal opinions?
Yes. We deliver legal opinions covering the UAE and key international jurisdictions. This allows projects with global investors and multi-market listings to meet all necessary legal requirements and reduce cross-border compliance risks.
