Chad’s practice areas also include the protection of an individual person’s or company’s intellectual property rights including trade secrets, copyrights, and trademarks. He also specializes in business formation and development of a company’s formal structure including its respective governing documents, offering counsel to existing companies as to how they can best achieve their goals, and guiding clients through the process of incubating their ideas/business plans. Chad works diligently to ensure that his clients’ ideas grow into a profitable and rewarding endeavor.
