About Audrey

Audrey’s passion for helping people protect themselves with trademarks came from adversity when she learned that three different organizations were fraudulently using the name of her nonprofit organization, Revolution Leadership, Inc. (www.RevolutionLeadership.org), in two different states and overseas without authorization.

Her firm has a 100% success rate with 501c3 tax-exempt nonprofit filings and federal trademark filings to date (Disclaimer: Past results do not determine future outcomes).

As an attorney, she has handled transactions with a combined value of several millions. Her clients range from Fortune 500 companies to start-up companies. She is the author of two #1 bestselling books on Amazon. 

She has been nominated for the Florida Legal Elite award, which recognizes the state's top lawyers as selected by their peers. She was a speaker at the White House Summit on Hispanic Leadership hosted by the Obama administration and served on a televised panel with Senator Hillary Clinton discussing the real estate lending crisis. She was nominated for the Presidential Citizens Medal awarded by President Obama and was featured in Black Enterprise Magazine.

She is happily married to financial author Juan P. Chisholm, J.D. and is the mother of two gorgeous girls.

Review Audrey Chisholm

She got me out of a student housing debacle!

Posted by

While in college I was shopping for apartments and found one that I liked, but was in a situation where I may have to change locations. I was assured by the leasing agents that I'd be able to cancel the contract if need be, and two days later I did just that. Months later the same complex called to see if I'd be interested in living there and I said no. After that they called me back to tell me that I actually have an active lease and will need to pay the full leasing amount for a year's contract. Mind you I never received keys or gave the complex any payment, but they wouldn't budge and sent my account to collections. Audrey didn't give up and contacted the collections company directly to drop the account, which they did! She saved me many headaches and a lot of money! I'd definitely recommend her services to others. Thank you again.
