HOOL COURY LAW

What HOOL COURY LAW does

Hool Coury Law is a Phoenix, Arizona-based corporate law firm founded circa 1994 that provides specialized legal counsel to high-growth companies, startups, and investors across Arizona, California, and the Rocky Mountain Region. The firm operates with a five-person team comprising three partners — Michael D. Hool (founding Partner), Jonathan A. Coury, and Connor N. Hubach — and two paralegals, Jaylene Meeker and Rachel Anklam. It offers legal services across six practice areas: Corporate Structuring & Business Transactions, Mergers & Acquisitions, Intellectual Property, Securities & Finance, Real Estate, and Employment Law.

The firm's go-to-market is sales-led, relying on direct client acquisition through professional networks, referrals, and community participation in Arizona's entrepreneurial ecosystem, including accelerators, incubators, angel groups, and adjunct teaching roles at ASU Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law. Service delivery is direct and consultative — phone, email, and office consultations at the Biltmore Financial Park location. Pricing operates on a quote-based professional-services model; specific fees are not publicly disclosed. The firm has no proprietary technology platform beyond standard practice tooling (Clio for client payments) and generated no disclosed funding, no M&A activity, and no AI/ML capability signals.

Ownership is concentrated among the three named partners with no disclosed parent company, PE/VC backing, or institutional investment. The firm's core value proposition is full-lifecycle representation — "launch, fund, scale, exit" — for both issuing companies and investors, including representation in transactions ranging from closely-held enterprise sales to hundred-million-dollar M&A. Recent observable activity includes a December 2025 $1,000 sponsorship of a Canyon Angels due diligence award at a Grand Canyon University pitch event and a referral relationship with Capitol Services, Inc. for Corporate Transparency Act BOI Report filings.
