About

     I have been advising business clients since 1985 in the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area.  My practice areas  are general business and intellectual property.      I can advise you about and/or prepare many kinds of contracts such as: operating and shareholder agreements, sale of business agreements, licenses, commercial leases, franchise agreements, confidentiality agreements, independent contractor agreements.  I can help you to reach important business decisions by offering an objective perspective and years of experience.     In the intellectual property area, I can work with you on the creation and protection of your valuable assets.  Whether the subject matter concerns copyright or trademark registration, license negotiations, publishing agreements, or website and software protection, I am going to listen to your concerns and work to accomplish your objectives.     Additonally, I offer Registered Agent services for entities in the State of Maryland.     The bottom line is that I enjoy working with each of my clients to solve their legal issues and to help their businesses thrive.

Barbara came recommended after inexperienced council attempted to handle my intellectual property case. With tight deadlines and negotiations to be made, Barbara's experience, knowledge and efficiency provided a favorable outcome on my behalf. I highly recommend the Law Office of Barbara Berschler.

Barbara helped me to review my Franchise Disclosure Document and accompanying Franchise Agreement for a Franchise I am acquiring. She was most professional and knowledgeable of the issues I should be aware of and planning for. Barbara has a great understanding of issues you should focus on as a Franchisee and how to approach with the Franchisor. I appreciated her directness as well as her willingness to make introductions to trusted service providers who could facilitate startup of a new business. I look forward to continuing to work with Barbara on other issues that may arise relative to my new business.

Barbara is helping me in the purchase of a franchise. She is very pointed, responsive and accessible. She tells you what you need to hear and know, not what you want to hear. She is very timely in her responses, and sensitive to the needs of small businesses, including sole proprietors. She provides excellent counsel, and I recommend her highly.

Barbara is extremely knowledgeable. We have worked together for several years. She is also active in the business community, I see her at events all the time and she speaks at seminars and classes. Barbara has a thorough understanding of the law and her field.

Barbara and I met in 2009 at a local Chamber event and discovered we both had alot in common, not the least of which was the desire to serve small businesses in their efforts to take care of the legal and marketing/PR aspects of their companies. I found Barbara to be extremely knowledgeable, dedicated, and focused, and she is tireless in her outreach to the small business community, giving many seminars and presentations totally free of charge. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a good all purpose business attorney, although she is especially knowledgeable in intellectual property matters.

Barbara provided consultation for us in setting up our new small business. Her expertise with trademark and copyright law was particularly helpful and she was also able to recommend an excellent accountant.

Barbara is an extremely knowledgeable, resourceful, and best-in-class attorney. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for legal advice in the areas that she practices. She stays on top of the task until it is completed to your satisfaction and will keep you informed throughout the process. You can't go wrong with her.
