Trust Tree® is based in Nashville, where hope-filled musicians arrive daily, intent on making their dreams come true. That drive to make an impact, to do something meaningful, permeates everything in Nashville. There is something about this town that makes you want to do something amazing-even if you’re a trademark attorney.
We know we aren’t country music stars. But, as trademark lawyers, we believe that your trademark is essential to the long term success of your business. To us, that’s as important as a platinum record.
At Trust Tree, we spend our days helping folks with their trademarks and visiting with friends and family. We reserve a good portion of each day to look for new ways to keep quality high and prices low while making the trademark registration process as convenient, simple, and fun as possible.
Trust Tree is a child of Nashville. We are laid back. We have fun. We are honest and fair. We talk straight. We are great at what we do, but we aren’t fancy. Most importantly, we hope what we’ve put together is helpful to you.
xoxo,
The Trust Tree Team
