How We Help
-
We help you decide the right form for your business, and if it makes sense, we’ll set up your LLC or corporation and draft all of the paperwork you need to get going.
-
We can review and negotiate a wide variety of contracts for you and warn you about potential issues, particularly ones unique to the art and entertainment industries.
-
We draft template contracts you can use for your day to day business, such as a services agreement for your clients or a statement of work for your contractors.
-
We can file an application for your federal trademark registration, help you if you run into trouble with the USPTO, and keep your registration up to date and renewed.
-
We can help you decide if you need a copyright registration, register it for you, and help you with licensing and other copyright concerns.

I would highly recommend that someone choose Aspect Law Group as their preferred legal counsel based on so much positive feedback from my community as well as my own, as they’ve helped me start two nonprofits and set up business partnerships that have been very successful!
