Protect and Profit:
Build, Protect, & Monetize Your Brand
Everything you have built is worth protecting. This is where you start.
A self-paced legal strategy training for scaling founders. Watch whenever you’re ready.
Taught by an attorney with a 100% success rate at the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board.
Sound familiar?
You have been building something real. And somewhere along the way, legal got pushed to the back burner.
Not because you do not care. Because there was always something more urgent.
Here’s what catches most founders off guard: “later” doesn’t wait quietly. It shows up as a cease-and-desist letter, a contractor who won’t hand over what you paid for, or a brand name almost identical to yours, already filed.
You have a brand people recognize and a business you have invested years into. But you have never filed a trademark. You are pretty sure no one else has your name. Pretty sure.
You hired a designer, a copywriter, a developer. They did great work. But you never put an IP assignment clause in the contract. So technically? They might still own it.
You signed a contract last month. You read it. Most of it. You are about 80% sure it says what you think it says. You never got a lawyer to look at it.
Someone just launched something with a name almost identical to yours. You have no idea what your options are or whether you have any.
You have been piecing together legal answers from Google, templates, a friend's lawyer story, and ChatGPT. None of it is tailored to your actual business. None of it gives you real protection.
You know you need to get your legal foundation in order. You just keep waiting until things slow down. They have not slowed down.
Here is what most founders do not realize until it is too late:
The time to protect your business is before you think you need to. Before the trademark dispute. Before the contractor disagreement. Before the contract you signed comes back to complicate everything.
Protection is not something you add once you are big enough.
It is what allows you to get there.
After you finish Protect and Profit…
You will know exactly what you own, what is at risk, and what to do about it.
You know whether your brand name is actually protected or whether someone could file it out from under you tomorrow.
You understand what copyright protects, what it does not, and how to make it a revenue tool instead of just a defense mechanism.
You know what contracts every scaling CEO needs, what to look for before you sign anything, and what language gives away more than you realize.
You have clarity on whether your contractors own the work they created for you and exactly how to fix it if they do.
You understand how to build an IP portfolio that attracts investors, enables licensing deals, and increases the value of your business.
You walk away with your own IP Asset Inventory so you know exactly where you stand and what to prioritize first.
Real legal strategy.
Zero fluff.
Here is exactly what we are covering.

YOUR HOST
Nuzayra Haque-Shah, Esq. Founder and Managing Attorney, NH Legal
Nuzayra Haque-Shah is a business and intellectual property attorney based in Los Angeles. She founded NH Legal PC in 2020 to give scaling founders access to the kind of strategic legal counsel that used to be reserved for companies with in-house teams and seven-figure legal budgets.
She has advised founders through $1B+ exits, maintained a 100% success rate at the Trademark Trial and Appeals Board, and been recognized as a Super Lawyers Rising Star and Daily Journal Top Woman Attorney in California. She’s negotiated seven-figure outcomes for clients, including a $500,000 trademark acquisition and $38,000 in compensation for a competitor dropping a conflicting filing.
She created this masterclass because the founders who get hurt legally are not the ones who do not care. They are the ones who found out too late. This is her way of making sure you are not one of them.
This is for you if…
You have been building for a while and your legal foundation has not kept up with your growth
You have a brand, a methodology, a course, or a product you have invested in and are not fully sure it is protected
You want to pursue partnerships, licensing deals, or investors and you know clean IP matters
You have hired contractors or collaborators and you are not sure who actually owns what they created
You have signed contracts you did not fully understand
You are done Googling legal questions and hoping the answer applies to your actual situation
You are ready to operate like a CEO, not a founder who is winging it
