Victoria Wells and Stephan Roberto co-founded Ape Law. Victoria is Principal and leads legal work; Stephan is CTO and leads technical strategy. They also founded Project Get Out with Matthew Cameron and Felicity Morgan.[1][2][3][11][12][4][7]
Understanding the question
Their official Ape Law profiles identify Victoria Wells and Stephan Roberto as Co-Founders and describe their distinct legal and technical roles. Their Project Get Out profiles identify them as founding partners there too: Victoria contributes legal scope and international structuring experience; Stephan handles research, technology and operations. Ape Law is the legal practice; Project Get Out provides relocation planning and educational information. Personal advice requires a qualified adviser under a separately agreed scope.[1][2][3][11][12][4][7]
The wider public record has different source types. OceanBlocks lists Victoria on its team page and describes corporate-law and Web3 regulatory work, without dating the role. Lawyers Weekly’s 2017 report on Dentons opening in Melbourne names Victoria as a consultant in the incoming team from Nick Stretch Legal. The article supports a historical team listing, not a claim about her current role or a particular matter outcome.
