Why ralphy Exists

Too many brilliant ideas never leave the notebook because founders get stuck at step one. Our mission is to remove that barrier.

We handle the boring legal admin — company registration, shareholder documentation, consents, and filings — so you can focus on building, selling, creating, and growing.

Whether you’re launching a side hustle, starting a new venture, or turning your passion into a business, ralphy makes sure you start from a strong legal foundation.

Hello from ralphy

Starting a business should feel exciting — not overwhelming. But for many first-time founders, the early steps are the hardest: complicated paperwork, confusing legal terms, and no clear guidance on how to do things “the right way.”

That’s why ralphy exists — to make starting a company in New Zealand simple, confident, and stress-free.

Our Promise to You

Simplicity: No jargon, no confusing forms — just a smooth, guided process.
Accuracy: Everything prepared and filed correctly, backed by real legal expertise.
Confidence: Your company set up properly from day one — ready for customers, investors, and growth.

ralphy's Story

Built by Someone Who’s Been There

ralphy was founded by Syavie Ghamry, a corporate lawyer who has spent a decade advising founders, investors, and businesses of all sizes on how companies are structured, how deals are done, and what happens when things go wrong.

At ralphy, we believe the best thing a business can do is start with a solid legal foundation. This avoids costly issues that can arise when the foundations are not done correctly from the outset. We wanted to provide an efficient and low cost solution to prospective businesses for boring, administrative legal matters. The legal side of starting a company shouldn’t hold anyone back — and with the right start, anyone can become a founder.

ralphy is your guide to peace of mind that you have started your business on the right foot. Say goodbye to expensive lawyers and accountants and let ralphy build your business foundation the right way.
