WORK WITH A LAW FIRM THAT UNDERSTANDS THE FOUNDER EXPERIENCE
Our Promise: We are never interested in just taking your money; we will always tell you when an investment is not worth it because every business is different, and every entrepreneur's priorities are different.
Our Commitment to Deep Strategy: We dedicate time to thoughtful, high-level strategy because the legal lines we draw are crucial. You deserve an answer that is right, not rushed. We focus on deep work, not panic-response time.
Our methodology is based on clarity and empowerment. We collaborate with you, showing you exactly what your contracts mean, how to leverage your IP, and the why behind every decision. This ensures you own your strategy and can move forward with total literacy and confidence.
The mission is clear: to ensure women, POCs, and immigrants have the foundational IP necessary to build and protect their wealth.
Choosing to open, run, and grow a business is uncertain by nature we celebrate that risk.
Our commitment to you starts with that understanding: We are strategic collaborators, here because we all know you’re going to try it anyway (with or without legal protections), so we might as well give you the best protections we can come up with.
No More Legal Hot Mess Express
We find solutions instead of complications. Your legal structure is what protects the capacity for you to become that seven-figure solopreneur or that eight-figure CEO with a small but mighty team.
You’ll be bending & snapping each time you’re...
Dropping the Ultimate Flex🎤: Having the confidence to say, "Let me check with my lawyer," or "Our lawyer is handling this", knowing you have InLine Legal in your corner.
Sending a Sassy Cease & Desist: One that hits like a 🎤mic drop because your systems were set up proactively.
Celebrating Your ®: With a dance🪩party that erases the doubt, imposter syndrome, and business-building stress lines.
Have Questions? We have Answers
-
It means our lawyer is licensed in Virginia and can practice law in Virginia. Intellectual property issues, like trademark and copyright are federal law, so we handle that too.
It also means our team is 100% remote and scattered around the globe. -
Yes. In fact, we ADORE working with non-US based founders.
As a fully virtual law firm with a global perspective (and a founder bouncing between Brazil and the United States), we understand the specific needs of international businesses expanding into the US. We provide the US Trademark counsel required to secure your brand across borders.

Think of it as the difference between a bespoke suit and high-end ready-to-wear.
The Contract Shop: Perfect for the "DIY Fix." You get access to lawyer-drafted contract templates that are industry-specific and ready to use immediately. It’s the best way to get "In Line" on a budget. You have NO client-attorney relationship with these.
Custom Counsel: This is for high-stakes moves—Trademark filings, complex negotiations, or full IP strategy. This is where we act as your strategic partners.
-
No. This is the biggest myth in business. An LLC protects your personal assets (your house/car) from business lawsuits. A Trademark protects your brand identity (your name/logo) from competitors. You can have an LLC and still get sued for trademark infringement. You likely need both to be truly secure.

Short Answer: Because cleaning up a mess costs 10x more than preventing one and at least twice as much time. Online filing services are just data-entry machines. They don't check if your brand is actually available or legally strong. As a strategic trademark law firm, we conduct rigorous clearance searches to ensure you aren't building your house on sandy foundations. We handle the strategy, filing, and defense so you can focus on scaling.
Waiting to protect your company or your brand is a gamble where the house always wins.
