What We Do

Find Your IP's Potential!

At Zala IP Law LLC, we know success requires protecting your most valuable assets, your brain, your brand, and your bottom line.

Intellectual property (IP) drives growth and innovation in the business world and is at the heart of successful entrepreneurship.  Without robust legal protections, however, your IP faces risk of infringement and lost revenues!

No matter the size of your production or portfolio, strategic IP licensing and management is proven to boost revenues!   Studies show that companies proactively protecting and monetizing their IP through proper licensing and strategy earn revenues 7-15% higher annually.

In IP-driven industries like music, TV, and film, proper IP licensing and distribution is critical to career and project success.  We’re dedicated to protecting and unlocking your IP’s true value!  Schedule your consultation today.

Shreeps at Zala Law is nothing short of professional, knowledgeable, and responsive. Anytime I had a question or concern he was quick to answer and knew exactly how to navigate the scenario. I work in video and photography. I was caught up in a contract dispute with a client and they threatened to sue. I was completely lost without any idea where to start. But then Shreeps was able to deal with them and kept it from getting worse. The peace of mind he was able to provide is something that was really important. I highly recommend Zala Law and will be using him for any and all of my future needs.

Who We Are

Our Vision & Purpose

Zala IP Law LLC was founded to help creatives and entrepreneurs protect their ideas and monetize their intellectual property.  We believe the human drive to create is an innate one and turning intellectual property, creative or otherwise, into successful, profitable business is what drives most businesses and entrepreneurs.  Your intellectual property is likely at the heart of your business’ marketing, product design, sales goals, or client experience.  Assuring it’s properly protected is a key to long-term business success!  Zala IP Law LLC was founded to help strategic-minded IP holders maximize the value of their intellectual property by keeping it both safe and productive.

We support the ideals of US intellectual property law that further “the progress of science and useful arts” by guaranteeing the individual rights to their own work.   As we integrate technology more into our everyday lives, we are committed to championing human authorship and performance by advocating for stronger US intellectual property laws.  We look to lead on the frontier of evolving legal and creative challenges that arise from the evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) and AI-driven creation.  This includes the uncertain impact on IP and copyright law and how AI may change the business and entertainment worlds as we know it.

AI also present challenges to protecting NIL (name, image, and likeness) rights that require an understanding of personal branding rights, internet law, digital privacy rights, and the transposition of these rights (and other guaranteed 1A and 4A rights) from the physical to digital realms.  We’re here to help you navigate these 21st-century challenges in a world where technology moves fast and the future feels uncertain.
