Business + Intellectual Property Legal Services
As a musician and business owner myself, I have dedicated my career to helping fellow creatives and entrepreneurs navigate the legal hurdles so you are free to pursue your passions.
My name is Josh Bennett and I am a solo practitioner that provides the kind of dedicated personalized service the large firms simply cannot deliver. I will never charge you for a five minute phone call or a one minute email. Let’s work within your budget and be transparent about what your needs really are and how I can help push your enterprise forward. I believe the attorney-client relationship should be built upon trust, not fear. Let’s turn your passion project into your career, together.

Areas of Practice
Music
As a fellow musician, I understand that you all just want to play. Book a gig, perform for your fans, and create art. Let’s do that! However it is important to ask the right business and legal questions. What happens to our songs if the band breaks up or a member leaves? How do I receive royalties if my songs are played on the radio or at bars? Should I have a different business for my merchandise? Give me a call and we can discuss all this and more.
ALSO, I am not just a lawyer, I am a music studio owner. If you are local to the Denver area and need a place to record, please ask me about JoshBox Studios. We have competitive rates and would love your business.
Intellectual Property
If my passion is music, my career is in intellectual property. I received my degree in mechanical engineering from the Missouri University of Science and Technology and became a registered patent agent prior to attending the University of Colorado Law School in 2014. I dedicated my early legal career to patent and trademark law and am extremely knowledgeable in all areas of patent and trademark prosecution and licensing. I have worked with companies as large as Medtronic and as small as single member LLCs. I have worked with technologies as complex as neuromorphic computing and as simple as novel bicycle shorts. I enjoy innovation in all of its forms.
Please call for a free 30 minute consultation to discuss whether patenting your innovation or trademarking your brand is appropriate for you.
Entrepreneurship
Starting a new business can be scary. How do I incorporate? Where can I find funding? How do I find my customers? Do I hire employees or independent contractors?
I’m here to help. I am well versed in the entrepreneurial world being an entrepreneur myself. Call on me, not just for your legal needs, but your business questions as well. Starting your business does not have to be risky. You can take baby steps at first. And for those companies already well into profit, I am here to help limit your liability and increase your revenue.
“Music is a moral law. It gives a soul to the Universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, a charm to the sadness, gaity and life to everything. It is the essence of order, and leads to all that is good and just and beautiful.”
