Draft Intellectual Property Assignment Agreement

Brandon Northington

"Brandon drafted a full legal document suite for our startup — an IP and Feedback Assignment Agreement, a Data Processing Addendum, and a Beta Tester Agreement and Liability Waiver — and the quality stood out. The three documents were clearly built to work together rather than as separate assignments: consistent defined terms, a clean order-of-precedence structure so it's obvious which agreement controls when two of them touch the same topic, and matching cross-references throughout instead of the small inconsistencies that usually creep in across a multi-document set. He was also genuinely responsive to specifics rather than working off a template. Earlier concerns we'd raised — international beta testers and moral rights handling, the right notice address, folding data-processing terms in properly, keeping references to our live Terms and Privacy Policy current — all showed up addressed in the drafts without us having to chase them down again. Communication throughout was clear and properly paced for a non-lawyer founder working through this for the first time. Would work with him again and recommend him for startups that need their legal documents to actually hold together as a set, not just individually."

Texas LLC Ownership Change Review

He turned it around quickly, strengthened the agreements with protections I wouldn't have thought of, and answered all my questions clearly. I'd gladly hire him again and highly recommend him."

"Excellent. He provided a lot of value and expertise up front, building trust — doing an initial sweep that steered me away from several unlikely options before I ever paid for a full search. I'm sure in many cases that preempts lost money chasing down additional name options that would've turned out to be conflicted anyway. Highly recommend."

Rosario Sorrentino

"Rosario was extremely responsive, knowledgeable, and professional throughout my trademark matter. He reviewed a complex trademark ownership dispute involving a competing USPTO application and provided a detailed written legal opinion within 24 hours. His analysis was thorough, practical, and easy to understand, and he took the time to explain both the legal and business implications of the situation. I especially appreciated his honest advice, cost-conscious approach, and focus on finding the most effective path forward rather than pursuing unnecessary litigation. I highly recommend Rosario for trademark, intellectual property, and business-related legal matters."
