Lee helped me with a trademark application. She made sure everything was filed timely and communicated suggestions to make sure the application would be accepted. Her advice and guideline adherence got the application approved and I got my trademark. Simply brilliant!

I've never had a lawyer before, but I made a movie and needed one. Lee handled several complicated issues quickly, thoroughly, and with great skill. She really knows her stuff and I trust her implicitly. I'm so excited - and confident - to build my career with Lee having my back. I hope to make her lots and lots of money!

I was sooooo lucky to find Lee Morin. This was my first time seeking out a lawyer for anything, much less a tv show contract. She was extremely accessible and thorough. She took great care to make sure that I was comfortable before agreeing to any terms. She also did her research to ensure that what was being offered was beyond fair. I absolutely plan to continue working with Lee in the future!!

Over the past several years I've sought legal advice for my business and protecting my work. The lawyers I had consulted with were stumped with how to protect my products but Lee understood exactly what I was trying to do and how to go about legally protecting me. In addition working with her has been a pleasure. Lee really understands the intricacies in her area of law.

My name is Timothy Middleton I am the owner of Fadelife Clothing. We have been working with Lee Morin since 2015. She has helped us to establish our trademark, as well as all corresponding paperwork. She has made each process flow very effortlessly, and it has been very easy on my part only having to supply the required documents. Lee’s work has been super efficient and she has left no box unchecked. Recently we reached out again to Lee in order to acquire help with a trademark infringement. She was able to handle the situation in no time by making sure that everything was taken care of for us. Lee’s work in unparalleled, and her love for what she does can clearly be seen. When she is given a task she takes it head on! I have recommended her to several of my friends, and she will continue to be the first person I continue to recommend to other business allies as well.

I'm a composer/lyricist who recently was offered a publishing deal for a musical I had written. Though this is the second time in my career this had happened, it was the first time where I didn't have collaborators on the writing of the project and I needed to negotiate for and protect my own interests in the agreement. I didn't know where to start, and I'm so very thankful that Lee Morin was available to take my case. In the initial consultation Ms. Morin laid out ideas for detailed specific language that would make this contract better for me on every level. She explained every shift in contractual language very clearly and it was very obvious that she cared about protecting my interests and revealing exactly how to make this happen. I then retained her services further to red-line the contract. She did such a good job of it that my publisher now wishes to retain her services for their work as well. I give Ms. Morin my highest recommendation.

I hired Lee to create a custom contract for a "works made for hire" project. Creating the contract required a detailed understanding of my business, how I planned to use the created works, etc. Lee listened intently at our consultation and provided excellent follow-up notes that showed she not only understood my unique business but also that helped me understand what was involved in seeking legal counsel for each area I wanted to address (contract for creation of unique artistic works, trademark, copyright, etc). Lee created what I would call a work of art in itself for my "works made for hire contract" as it thoroughly outlines the terms of the contract and also carefully protects my rights to the work created. Now that this contract is in place and being utilized, I'll definitely use Lee's services for my future legal needs. She's thorough, detailed, very communicative, quick to understand unique businesses, and polite!

I cannot say enough about how wise of an investment it has been to hire Lee Morin. Aside from a very positive attitude and extraordinary professionalism, I feel that my career, short and long term goals have been not only enhanced, but absolutely electrified. Lee has not only a vast wealth of knowledge about both the law and the industry, but a treasure trove of contacts, which she greatly enjoys matching up when there is a mutual benefit to be gained. Lee's communication and follow up was always consistent, clear and concise, and when my needs changed, she was able to adapt seamlessly, and keep things consistently moving forward. Without question, working with Lee was one of the best business decisions I have made to date. I would wholeheartedly recommend her, for a variety of reasons.

I reached out to Lee a few weeks ago for a consultation on a website I'm in the process of launching soon. I gained so much more than I thought I would from our meeting and had such confidence in Lee that she created a Terms of Use and Privacy Policy for my business. She's always prompt to respond to calls/emails, works fast, and is thorough. Very professional, cannot recommend enough.

Since day one of working with Lee, she has been a breath of fresh air. In July I hired Lee to draft legal documents. While preparing to draft the documents, Lee begin to notice some red flags with the party we were in communication with, and carefully brought these things to my attention. She consulted me on the matter, and helped me to make the necessary changes to get my project back on track. Throughout the entire process Lee remained professional and continuously demonstrated her commitment. I am confident in Lee's abilities and highly recommend her.
