If it’s about making legal stuff a breeze so you can grow your business,
let’s work together!
Finding a lawyer who understands your needs as a creative professional is challenging.
Not everyone gets that branding (ie: your trademarks) matters a lot in your saturated market…
… or that “collaboration over competition” is not wishful thinking but actually a big profit-driver (and so win-win contracts are a must)…
… but even so, protecting your original works from copycats is at the Top 2 of your legal wishlist.
So you often get quoted for legal services that make sense on paper but don’t actually line up with your priorities.
You don’t have to spend 3 years in law school + 1 year articling + pass the bar exam to get your business legally protected.
With a lawyer that gets you and your business in your team, you can focus on what you do best—bringing more beauty (and joy!) into people’s lives with your products and services.
You can hand over that legal wishlist—even if it’s got a whole bunch of question marks—and get the right legal tools & strategies you need at the right time.
Your work life should light you up.
Here’s how I cut through the legalese,
so you can confidently pursue your vocation.

Legal Jumpstart VIP Intensive
You want your business’s legal foundations to reflect the level of professionalism your clients and customers expect from you. But you’ve been putting off your legal projects because your time is better spent creating offerings and serving your people.
Move your profit-boosting legal projects from “will do” to “done 😎.” I’ll spend a laser-focused day working on what you need: whether it be custom contracts that lead to win-win agreements based on how you WANT to do business, the lifestyle you desire, and the person you want to be; trademark registration (complete with a comprehensive trademark search to make sure your brand is trademarkable) so your brand is protected from copycats; copyright registration to protect your most valuable original works from theft; incorporation to protect your personal assets from liability; or even an estate plan so you can leave your clients, customers & loved ones with a legacy of love and ease if ever you get into an accident or pass away.
What you get:
- Your choice of legal project completed by the end of the VIP Intensive*
- Kickoff call with the business lawyer working on your project so your legal tool is designed with your personal and business needs in mind

I was at first hesitant to work with a business lawyer because I heard of the fees that come with the service.
But, I wasn’t confident in the steps I needed to do to file my trademark application and I needed someone knowledgeable to guide me through my struggle. So I decided to take the leap, and I’m so happy I did!
Czarina was so compassionate, understanding, trustworthy and professional. She guided me through the whole process with her genuine and encouraging smile.
Working with Czarina saved me from wasting my time, effort, and money. But more than that, the confidence that I achieved in order for me to launch my product is definitely priceless!
