As an aspiring Corporate Attorney at Law currently working to finish her juris doctor degree, Jeanniece Jackson, MBA, BSBA, has learned first hand the importance of knowing how to legally protect a business brand in the following ways.*

​

Entity Formation

​

Hiring a CPA can help you determine how to legally register your brand in a manner that fits its mission and vision while limiting tax and liability exposure.

 

Intellectual Property Protection

 

There are a host of legal solutions available to make it difficult for competition to steal your business ideas, including non-disclosure agreements, non-compete agreements, trade secrets, copyrights, trademarks, and patents. Knowing which of these instruments you need to have in place is crucial to helping protect the longevity of your brand name.

 

Contract Drafting and Review

 

From real estate purchases to finance negotiations and supplier agreements, in these situations it never hurts to have an attorney help make sure you are correctly crossing every “T” and dotting every “I” to get the best value out of every transaction.

 

Business and Employment Law

Running a business of any kind guarantees that one needs to be proactive regarding their approach to compliance with the relevant guidelines and regulations that impact their industry and areas of commerce. From human resources planning to ethical brand marketing, there are serious drawbacks to not understanding the legal requirements for operating a private or public brand.
