At Saddle Peak Law, we’ll walk you through the pros and cons of each structure based on your goals, industry, and risk level—so you can start your business on solid ground.

If it involves legal language or risk, it’s worth having a lawyer take a look.
Technically, no—but registration gives you real legal power.
For copyrights, your work is automatically protected the moment it's created and fixed in a tangible form (like a written document, photo, or recording). However, registering your copyright with the U.S. Copyright Office gives you stronger legal rights—like the ability to sue for damages if someone uses your work without permission.
For trademarks, you get some limited protection just by using your brand name or logo in commerce. But registering with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) gives you nationwide protection, makes enforcement easier, and helps stop others from using a similar name or logo.
At Saddle Peak Law, we can help you decide when and how to register—and make the process straightforward.
A General Counsel (GC) is the chief lawyer for a business or organization. Think of them as your company’s legal quarterback—there to help you stay compliant with laws, avoid risk, and make confident, informed decisions. They provide guidance on everything from contracts and employment law to intellectual property, business strategy, and dispute resolution.
At Saddle Peak Law, we offer general counsel services tailored for small businesses, nonprofits, and entrepreneurs who don’t need a full-time in-house lawyer but still want trusted, ongoing legal support.
