PROTECT YOUR EMPIRE

ATTORNEY FOR CREATIVE ENTREPRENEURS

MISSION

To Empower Entrepreneurs To Protect Their Businesses Through Trademarks And Contracts

Entrepreneurs are at the forefront of innovation and are primary contributors to the advancement of society. As an attorney and an entrepreneur myself, I understand the challenges involved in starting and growing a business in today’s complex technological environment. I understand what it’s like to build a brand from scratch because I’ve had to do it too. I know the value and importance of protecting one of your business’ most valuable asset through trademark registration.

Without trademark registration, you do not legally own the rights to the name of your business or any of your brand assets, including your logo or any slogans associated with your brand. Anyone can use your brand "assets" without your permission. Our firm uses our signature six-phase trademark process to guide you step-by-step through the entire trademark registration process. Once your trademark is officially registered, the mark is legally yours and you have the right to stop anyone from using your mark without your consent.

I’m so glad I found Zara on Instagram and decided to reach out! I was nervous going through the trademark process with a lawyer in another state, but Zara made the process so easy and seamless. Zara was helpful every step of the way, answered all of my questions and was extremely knowledgeable about the trademark process! I never felt like I couldn't ask a question or reach to her when I needed to! I will definitely come back to utilize more of her services! Thank you Zara!

Zara's was the least expensive contract template I could find. I already had most of what she provided from doing some searching, but there were a few things that I didn't have. It was great to have this template and to know I was on the right track!

I am a full-time attorney, but setting up businesses is not something I do. I wanted someone that I could trust and someone that is passionate about helping creative entrepreneurs navigate the nuances of setting up the foundation for their businesses. Zara and her law firm were top of mind for me! Zara is extremely responsive, careful, and took the time to listen to all my queries. I look forward to continue working with Zara and highly recommend Zara Watson Law.

It is an absolute pleasure to work with Zara. She is professional and always replies within a timely manner, which is always greatly appreciated. Also, I appreciate her follow-up on the status of items that she's working on for me, so I know exactly what is going on and I'm able to understand the timeline and expectations on projects. The contract templates are amazing and extremely easy to use. Zara has made it simple to follow and highlights the areas that you need to fill information or potentially consider if the line applies for your business needs. The best part is that there is a consultation call included in the contract, which was helpful to understand how minor nuances may need to be tailored for my business needs. I highly recommend working with Zara and utilizing the services that she offers along with the contract templates, which have been extremely helpful for my business.

The Zara Watson Law Firm advocated on my behalf regarding a music syncing license agreement. I was very lucky to use this firm's services. Zara over delivered in both her thoroughness and guidance. Most importantly, the communication throughout the whole process was stellar. As musicians can often face pitfalls in the business, it felt great to have a reliable attorney on my side. I look forward to using the firm again, and furthermore, I will be recommending this firm to my colleagues.

We had great chemistry as well, I felt I could tell Zara anything. Going through my case with Zara made me have a very positive first-time experience.

Zara does more than keep your ideas protected, she holds incredible safe space for me to flush out my creative process, working with me to see how those creative visions will work on the material plane. She is divinely skilled in the balance of support and critique, something every creative needs when it comes to support and seeing those creative visions accurately manifested. In our working together, I have learned to be more disciplined and grounded without feeling like I'm losing my flow during the ideation stage. Zara is a professional who can serve not only as your attorney but as someone who is dedicated to supporting the process every creative goes through. She operates with a delicate balance of support and critique to help you achieve optimal success in whatever venue you seek to bring change to the world. That's what we creatives do! She's responsive, very courteous, and always shows grace, especially to working mother's like myself, who may not always function from a noise-free environment. I Love Zara, specifically for that.

What I knew about Trademarking: It is expensive, but necessary if you want to grow your own business. What I did not know: It is a nearly year-long process of back and forth with USTPO attorneys, other businesses, revisions, and check-ins. After going through this process, I can honestly say that there is no way I could have done it successfully without Zara. She is not only thorough, organized, and extremely knowledgeable about every in and out of trademark law, but she is deeply supportive, thoughtful, and compassionate. If things were difficult on her end, I would never know it, because Zara made me feel like my trademark process was the only thing she was working on. Never perturbed by a question and always available when I needed her, it is clear to me that Zara does her absolute best for every client. Plus, she was incredibly transparent about the cost, timeline, and logistics of the process. Kindness + Honesty + Skills = the perfect Trademark Attorney. Honestly, I cannot recommend Zara enough. Thank you Zara!
