Business & Intellectual Property Lawyer

About RO LAW LLC

RO LAW LLC is a boutique intellectual property and business law firm devoted to the work of growth. We serve founders, creators, and investors who must move with pace, yet cannot afford imprecision, and we meet them where law becomes a tool of construction rather than a brake upon it.


At the center of our practice is intellectual property: trademarks and copyright, and the agreements that give life to entertainment, the arts, and sport. A brand is a promise, a work is an asset, and a contract is the instrument that makes each enforceable; our task is to secure ownership, to define rights with clarity, and to prevent the disputes that ambiguity invites.


We also counsel those who labor at the frontier of technology, including renewable energy, AI, and robotics. In these matters, the questions are rarely abstract; they are practical questions of commercialization, risk, and responsibility, answered through careful drafting and sound judgment in dealings with data, vendors, products, and partners.


We remain attentive to the daily needs of small businesses and nonprofits, for growth is sustained as much by governance as by vision. We guide formation and compliance, operating agreements and bylaws, licensing and permitting, real estate matters, and dispute resolution, and we support mergers and acquisitions and franchise transactions from diligence through closing and the necessary work that follows.
