About Darkhorse Attorneys
Our firm is a little bit different. We are not just intellectual property, contracts, and business law specialists. And we are not just business litigators, trademark lawyers, or software law geeks. We are proud of our firm’s focus and our unique approach makes us trusted advisors for so many brands, content creators, and businesses.
We hope you will read more about our history, our philosophy, and what makes champions for our clients.
A Focused Law Practice
We narrowly focus our practice on issues facing small and medium-sized businesses, content creators, business brands, and entrepreneurs. We usually represent businesses or individuals with a business or intellectual property issue. We have the skill to handle just about every intellectual property or business issue that may arise, and if we do not, we have a reliable network of attorneys that we call on to help our clients.
Real Experience in Real Legal Cases
When we say we are experienced in intellectual property, contracts, and business law, we mean it. We take it seriously when we say that we are experienced in intellectual property, copyrights, trademarks, contracts, and business law. Our attorneys have filed real lawsuits on behalf of our clients, including complex briefing, settlement discussions, and trials.
Explaining Your Legal Options
A good lawyer should tell you the truth, not what you want to hear. We believe the attorney-client relationship is at its best when we are telling clients hard truths about their case. We always counsel our clients in a way that considers the likelihood of success balanced against our client’s business objectives and the costs involved. And we will never sugar coat anything.
A Nimble Boutique Law Firm
We say we are a boutique law firm not because it sounds cool, but because that’s exactly what we are. We intentionally have a small team and a narrow focus so we can react quickly to our client’s problems. We have intentionally created processes that streamline our intake and interactions so we can focus on the problems facing our clients.
Since 2016
Our intellectual property law firm started as Connors Law in 2016. Our founder, Andrew Connors, was disheartened by common practices he saw in the legal profession and thought there must be a better way to practice law. He began his firm with a simple mission: to do right one client at a time. That simple firm grew into Connors and Brenke, a firm with multiple offices in the Commonwealth of Virginia. The firm became Darkhorse Attorneys in 2020, with offices in Lynchburg and Roanoke, Virginia.
Today, Darkhorse Attorneys has grown into a culture that upholds untraditional values in the legal field. We believe that every case and every client is unique and that it takes hard work to solve our clients’ problems. Because of that, we reject templates and mass production-style law practice. To protect your ideas and your business competently calls for nothing less.
