Helping founders turn ideas into recognizable, purpose‑driven brands.
We collaborate with clients to establish brand positioning, create mission-aligned messaging, and design visual identities (including logos, color palettes, and typography). All deliverables are produced with future intellectual property protection in mind, allowing the brand to grow without legal obstacles.

Secure the names and symbols that differentiate your business.

• Comprehensive clearance searches (U.S. and international)
• Preparation and filing of USPTO trademark applications
• Monitoring of renewal deadlines and maintenance filings
• Strategic advice on building and defending a trademark portfolio that scales with the business.

Protect original works of authorship—from music to software.
We guide clients through the U.S. Copyright Office filing process for visual art, written content, audio recordings, video, and code. We also draft licensing agreements that allow creators to monetize their work while retaining control.
