What founders told us after we closed their companies, in their own words.
Starcycle consolidated the information for me to execute the dissolution of my company and supported me in identifying and executing deliverables to meet all legal, client, and financial obligations.
In working with Starcycle, I saved $6,000 minimum in legal fees to draw up the paperwork, draft language for any sales engagements tied to the corporation, and understand the options for how to professionally execute the dissolution process.
Their team’s communication was clear and always specified deadlines, best practices, and the deliverables attached to every step of the process. This saved hours and capital that I typically spend working with a legal firm.
The Starcycle team was a fantastic partner in helping us shut down some remaining state registrations. Any founder who has been through this process can attest that it’s not a fun experience, but Starcycle made it super easy and relieved our stress that had been building up.
When I was shutting down my company, I reached out to Starcycle, Sunset, and SimpleClosure. Jaclyn at Starcycle had the best offering, and I just enjoyed meeting her the most. Turns out, my instinct was right. Both her and Madeline were amazing. They responded incredibly quickly and kept things moving forward. Highly recommend anyone going through this process to work with them.
I appreciate you operating on a flat fee basis and really acting like a partner, jumping in on the threads with our counsel. It was a small thing to be in the loop there but gave me a lot of confidence that things were progressing as they should.
Also the fact that you came to collect the papers from me in person and noticed the error I forgot to sign and notified me and came back to get the signature.
I particularly valued the constant guidance and follow-up from Catalina and the team. The coordination between the closing of the Mexican entity and the tax extension filing was excellent and gave me significant peace of mind.
I truly appreciated the service provided; the entire process was professional and clear.
Everything was great, you took great care of me end-to-end. I never felt like I was missing anything or was on my own.
The experience was flawless overall. I really enjoyed working with you, and I’m definitely going to use Starcycle in the future myself and recommend it to my friends.
Organizing all the documents, both the ones we provided and the ones you generated for us, in the dashboard saved me a lot of time.
Also, navigating the odd situation we had where the state of CA was sending us tax bills although we never had actually registered with them, was very helpful due to its complexity.
Overall, I don’t have any negative feedback. I felt supported, and the communication was clear.
Since I’m not very familiar with the U.S. legal and administrative system, maybe an even simpler overview of each process step could be helpful for international founders. That being said, everything was still understandable and well handled.
