TESTIMONIALS

"Dear Brenda,

I was telling my business partner how happy I was to have spent the money to get you to read over our public art contract. I mentioned to him how I just sent down a couple of paragraphs concerning copyright issues. You asked to see the whole contract - when you saw that you pointed out that there was a much biggger red flag in it than I realized. You gave me new wording for both parts which after a bit of back and forth with city hall they came to see it our way! I work as a public artist and I talk to artists frequently signing contracts that they feel powerless to contest. Thanks to you I now feel as though I have an affordable way to successfully negotiate terms favorable to me. Thanks for working with me, I look forward to the next time!

Sincerely,

Ann Cunningham, Artist and Instructor, Confluence Design & Fabrication LLC

"Wow! You’re good! Great advice and insights on the publishing contract. You caught things that other legal counsel I've worked with never did."

"Brenda Speer is a remarkable professional in her field. Her integrity, knowledge and expertise, along with her pragmatic and thoughtful approach have helped us understand the complex intricacies of trademark protection for our brand. Based on Brenda’s guidance (not to mention a refreshing sense of humor walking us through a somewhat convoluted process), we are confident in the steps we have taken to safeguard our proprietary methodologies and tools that differentiate us from our competitors."

Carol Chapman & Suzanne Tulien, Principals, The Brand Ascension Group, LLC

"Brenda wrote the Buyers Purchase Contract and Warranty for our home building company in clear, concise language that our Buyers could understand. She is extremely efficient, the work was done in a timely manner and Brenda's sense of humor made the project fun. Brenda has done a fantastic job on all of our other legal work as well. We highly recommend her!"

Solera Homes, Inc.

"Taking on a new business venture with a new product, my business partner and I are so pleased with our decision to entrust Brenda with our vision and our legal needs. She involves herself with your situations, and applies herself with encouragement and knowledge. We were relieved to find a lawyer with knowledge and experience of the importance of the arts in the community. As a full time (and then some) artist, juggling the business and the artistic side of “running your own show” can be overwhelming and frightening. Through her strong show of support and encouragement, I would recommend Brenda Speer as a valuable resource and an asset to any company."

Jannine Crowley Scott, Owner, Alpine River Glassworks

"As counsel for PeakImpact, Brenda has been invaluable in helping us set up the legal structure for our nonprofit. Her legal advice is based on a deep business understanding and is focused, comprehensible and pragmatic. She is meticulous in her research and thorough in assessing complex legal issues. Her outstanding professionalism and quick wit combine to make her a delight to work with. Consequently, Brenda has become one of the management team and a friend. Brenda is an asset to the Colorado Springs business community. Without hesitation, we recommend her legal services."

Anne Bevis, President, Experts In Action, Inc. (PeakImpact)

"It's a rare thing to find an attorney who truly "gets it"-- but Brenda does! In addition to being a true arts-lover, she has an abiding respect for artists themselves. Most importantly, she has the depth and understanding of the letter of the law so that artists can do what they do best: make art. She is an ally and friend of artists."

Bettina Swigger, Executive Director, COPPeR (Cultural Office of the Pikes Peak Region)
