About Nicholas
Biography
I help creative businesses protect their brands, structure their deals, and navigate the risks that come with growth.
Through MADE NEXT PC, a Los Angeles law firm, I provide legal and strategic counsel to founders, fashion and consumer brands, creative agencies, technology companies, and independent creators. My practice covers trademarks, contracts, business formation, brand protection, licensing, brand identity and strategy, data privacy, and AI governance.
My background combines in-house legal counsel with hands-on experience in marketing, branding, consumer goods, e-commerce, technology, and sports and entertainment. That perspective helps me connect legal decisions to how businesses actually operate—from launching a brand and negotiating a collaboration to protecting intellectual property and managing data and AI risks.
My approach is straightforward: clear advice, practical agreements, and responsive communication. MADE NEXT offers flat-fee services and a free 30-minute consultation so prospective clients can discuss their needs and understand the next steps.

Trusted business attorney
Nick is our trusted legal counsel for the family business. We are in the food industry and Nick provided guidance getting our contracts in place and our company organized with the state. It's nice to know that we can call Nick with any questions and we don't need to fear a random invoice.

No Hoopla with Nick. Straight to the Point and Honest
We have been working with Nick for quite some time for all our trademark apps, reviewing all our contracts, our by-laws etc. Nick is honest, great, fast, communicative. We've worked with other firms who charge arm and legs and we could never get a response but with Nick was the complete opposite.

I hired Nicholas for a few company formations and trademark submits. He gave me all the information I needed prior to doing any work for me, like how the process would go, how long it would take, and was up front about his compensation/rate. So I agreed to hire him based on his up front honesty and h...
