Trenner Law Firm: Supporting Innovation in Colorado
Boulder has long been one of Colorado’s leading centers for innovation, entrepreneurship, and emerging technology. From university research and software startups to consumer products and outdoor equipment companies, Boulder continues to attract inventors, engineers, and founders building meaningful technology.
As a patent attorney licensed in Colorado, I work with inventors, startups, and established businesses throughout Boulder and the Front Range to protect innovations through strategic patent and trademark counsel.
My connection to Boulder extends well beyond my legal practice. I have worked closely with the University of Colorado Boulder community in support of technology transfer, research commercialization, and small business innovation. Over the years, I have had the opportunity to work alongside founders, engineers, faculty innovators, and emerging companies developing technologies across software, engineering, medical devices, and consumer products.
Boulder also holds personal significance for my family. My son is currently pursuing graduate studies in computer science at the University of Colorado, which keeps me closely connected to the energy, research culture, and entrepreneurial spirit that define the Boulder community.
Outside of my legal practice, I have spent many days hiking the trails around the Flatirons and supporting the independent businesses that make Pearl Street Mall one of Colorado’s most vibrant small-business communities. That connection gives me a practical appreciation for the people and companies building products and technologies in Boulder.
