I left the 9-to-5 for the same reason you did. I wanted to be my own boss, to own the thing with my name on it, and to decide what my own time was worth. Trademark law is where those two lives meet: it is the practice that lets me work for myself and spend my days making sure other people can keep doing the same.

The
Why

Most of the founders I work with built something before anyone told them it was allowed. A consulting practice, a product line, a following. The name came from them, and it is usually the last thing they think to protect.

Owning your name is not a formality. It protects your business, your livelihood, and the years you have already spent building recognition. I would rather do that work now, at a flat fee, than watch someone rebuild a brand under a name they never wanted.

Citrus Legal is a boutique practice on purpose. One attorney handles your file from search to certificate. You will always know who is working on it and what the next step is.
