Empowering Entrepreneurs and Creators Across the Empire State
In a city where innovation never sleeps, every idea, brand, and business deserves powerful legal protection. At Carson Legal Strategies, I help New York City entrepreneurs, small business owners, and creative professionals navigate the legal complexities of business formation, trademarks, copyrights, and contracts—so they can build confidently in one of the most competitive markets in the world.
From Manhattan startups and Brooklyn boutiques to Queens media firms and Bronx nonprofits, I provide the strategic legal foundation New York businesses need to launch, protect, and scale.

Carson Legal Strategies supports New York clients through every stage of growth. Whether you’re forming a company, protecting your brand, or negotiating key partnerships, I deliver personalized, results-driven legal solutions.
Our core practice areas include:

I guide clients through forming LLCs, corporations, and partnerships in accordance with the New York Department of State and local compliance requirements. From operating agreements to corporate by laws, I set your business up for long-term success.
Trademark Registration
In a market defined by originality, trademark protection is non-negotiable. I manage USPTO filings for businesses, startups, and creators, ensuring every mark is properly registered and enforceable nationwide.

Beyond registration, I handle renewals, portfolio management, and enforcement—helping clients defend their brand identity against infringement or dilution.
Copyright Registration & Management
From digital creators and musicians to tech developers and designers, I protect creative works through copyright registration, licensing, and enforcement strategies tailored to your industry.
Contract Drafting & Negotiation
Every partnership and transaction in New York should be backed by clear, enforceable contracts. I draft and review business agreements, licensing deals, NDAs, and employment contracts to prevent disputes and protect your interests.
