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.
