Trademark Registration COLZ

Ross Brandborg

"Ross was extremely helpful in guiding me through the trademark process for my new SaaS product. He ran thorough searches on multiple name candidates and gave me honest, clear opinions — including telling me directly when a name I liked was too risky to pursue, which saved me from a costly mistake down the road. He explained the USPTO process patiently for someone new to trademarks, answered every question quickly, and was upfront about costs at each step (including telling me when I didn't need to file in extra classes, saving me money). The application was filed promptly once we landed on the right name. Highly recommend for anyone navigating a trademark search and filing for the first time."

Cybersecurity Business Contracts

Steven Stark

"This was my first time using the UpCounsel platform, and I hired Steven to draft foundational documents—including an MSA and SOW—for my new cybersecurity startup. Upon our initial contact, Steven proactively recommended expanding the scope to include necessary additions like Fee Schedules and Rules of Engagement (ROE), impressively doing so without increasing the initial budget. As a first-time user, I wasn't sure what to expect regarding the quality of the deliverables, but Steven exceeded my expectations. He addressed every legal concern I had, provided a remarkably quick turnaround, and remained highly responsive throughout the process. Thanks to Steven, my first experience on UpCounsel was exceptional. I highly recommend him and will absolutely utilize his services for any future legal needs."
