About

Senior legal thinking,
built for how companies
actually move.

You don't need a full-time GC. But you do need someone who understands both the legal and commercial picture, communicates without jargon, and keeps decisions moving.

Tabanan, led by Triin Tigane, works directly with management as a pragmatic legal and commercial partner: translating complexity into clear decisions, structuring for scale, and making sure nothing critical falls through the cracks as you grow.

Over a decade advising clients across Europe (Nordics, Baltics, UK, EU), the US, the Middle East, and Asia — with the range to match wherever your business takes you.

What clients say

Trusted by founders,
investors & studio builders.

While building my game studio, Triin has been an advisor and sounding board. She helped me navigate international setup, team decisions, and investor questions — always with a very practical approach. When there are too many things on the table, she cuts through the noise and focuses on what actually matters.

Tabanan has supported us on regulatory licensing and compliance, covering AML, FATCA, DAC2 and CRS reporting, fund governance, and finance operations. For a smaller VC without a full internal team, having that depth of legal and operational expertise on call has been invaluable.

01

Fractional General Counsel

Senior legal thinking, without the full-time cost. You’re making decisions fast — legal shouldn’t slow you down. A fractional GC means you get a senior lawyer embedded in your team, just without the full-time salary. Tabanan, led by Triin Tigane, works alongside you on the things that matter: contracts, company structure, equity, compliance, and anything that needs a second pair of eyes before you sign or commit. Deep enough understanding of your business to give you real advice, not just legal opinions.
