Contract and Trademark Guidance

I would highly recommend Cara for trademark, IP and commercial contract transactions. Cara was exceptionally easy to work with and she provided the needed guidance and counsel in our complicated business strategy. She truly understands the business environment and knows how to efficiently maneuver i...n this place.

Thanks Cara !!

“I highly recommend Cara for commercial business matters. She has successfully negotiated a number of transactions for my business to my satisfaction."

Posted by Joe | October 16, 2015 | Hired Attorney | Litigation

Expert in IP law and litigation- analytical, timely and very reasonably priced

Ms. Morris has terrific skills, at a time when I needed all of them: a dozen years litigation, a dozen years IP/corporate law. She is a competent patent lawyer, trademark lawyer, and knows how business works.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
