What to expect & How to work with us:

Step 1: Book Your Consult

  • You’ll meet 1:1 on a zoom call with Attorney Sarah Gilliland to discuss your business, legal goals, and how we can help (see below for the services we offer)

  • Your consultation fee is credited toward your legal services if you engage Rising Brand Legal within 7 days of the consultation

Step 2: Choose Your Legal Services

  • We’ll recommend the best path forward (and quote clear, transparent pricing so you’ll know exactly what to expect).

  • You decide what support fits best — tackling one legal project at a time, ongoing legal support, or BOTH! (See Memberships below for ongoing legal support)

Step 3: Onboard + Get Started

  • The last 10 minutes of your consult meeting is saved for onboarding.

  • E-sign an Agreement with the firm to officially hire us

  • Have your payment method ready (ACH bank transfer preferred, but we also accept major credit cards)

Services & Pricing:

TRADEMARK REGISTRATIONS: Pricing starting at $2500 per trademark + government filing fees

We help you secure your brand names (such as the name of your business and the name of your key offerings & products) logo, and taglines with clear steps, honest guidance, and none of the guesswork. From search to registration, you’ll know what’s happening and why it matters.

There is a lot of BAD info out there! Many businesses who use discount online services or try to DIY the process feel great at the start, only to learn a year later that mistakes were made and they have to go back to the starting line… or worse, they have to rebrand. Don’t fall victim to embarrassing brand legal mistakes. Work with an expert attorney to protect the foundation of your business.

CUSTOM CONTRACTS: Pricing starting at $1600

Every business relationship is unique. The way you document that relationship in a signed agreement means everything to your business. What business secrets will be kept secret and what’s fair game? What ideas, systems, and methods can be shared, and what’s confidential? Who owns the things created with this business relationship? The best time to paper up your agreements (digitally of course)… is when everyone is getting along and on the same page. We can help you navigate what’s most important and protect it in a Contract.

NEW BUSINESS FORMATION: Pricing starting at $800

You’ve poured everything into your business, so what’s next? Will you sell it one day? Will the kids take over? What happens if something unexpectedly happens to you? From business structure to Estate planning, we’ll help you get everything aligned so that “what if” cloud isn’t hanging over you.

  • "Sarah made this process simplistic and not at all intimidating, which I can imagine is a big reason people hesitate on seeking legal counsel - it can be scary! This for us however, was such a welcomed step in our business and we're happy to have Sarah as a resource and someone to refer others too when needed!" - Jill and Mary , Founders of Girls Mentorship
