SOMETIMES A DREAM…

VeriTrademark^® started with a small dream — a dream shared by many entrepreneurs. A dream of doing things a better way, free from the tyranny of the mediocre and the staid.

When founder Danny Bronski graduated with his Duke law degree and MBA in 2002, he rejected many opportunities in "big law", corporate america and elsewhere to take a major risk with his life. On the verge of becoming fodder for a large New York City law firm, he instead staged his own personal rebellion – a rebellion that might seem small in the grand scheme of things.

In the cliched version of the "go west, young man" tale, Danny gave away nearly all of his possessions, burned his textbooks in a ritual bonfire, and drove west to Seattle with only what would fit in the Acura he wished he hadn't bought a few months before.

Arriving with a cornucopia of lofty and not-so-lofty goals alike, after a brief detour to create his own internet startup, Danny set out to build a small but sophisticated law practice underpinned with a philosophy of avoiding many of the stodgy ways of doing business that have plagued large law firms for years.

More than a decade (and exactly zero regrets) later, the law practice Danny started has evolved and matured, and the legal industry itself has been upended, but the founding principles of VeriTrademark endure: efficiency through technology, an emphasis on building relationships and providing superior customer service, and a practical but sophisticated approach to solving legal problems, simplifying where possible.

You can expect that any member of the VeriTrademark^® team will be in alignment with these principles.

OK, so if you are *really* interested in Danny Bronski and his philosophy, read on!
