Trenner Law Firm: Supporting Innovation in Fort Collins and Northern Colorado
Fort Collins has built a reputation as one of Colorado’s leading communities for innovation, engineering, manufacturing, agriculture, software, and entrepreneurial growth. From university-driven research to family-owned businesses and emerging startups, Northern Colorado continues to produce companies built around technical expertise and practical innovation.
As a patent attorney licensed in Colorado, I work with inventors, entrepreneurs, engineers, and businesses throughout Fort Collins, Loveland, and the greater Northern Colorado region to protect inventions, brands, and intellectual property through strategic patent and trademark counsel.
My connection to Northern Colorado goes back generations. My family has longstanding ties to the region, including deep connections to Colorado State University (my father was a graduate student in the math department at CSU!) and my parents lived many years in nearby Loveland. Because of that, my family and I have spent significant time in Fort Collins and throughout Northern Colorado, developing a genuine appreciation for the entrepreneurial spirit, technical talent, and close-knit business community that define this region.
Professionally, I have also worked with innovators ranging from global technology companies, to small businesses, founders, and startup companies in Fort Collins, Loveland and throughout Northern Colorado. That experience allows me to provide intellectual property counsel that combines technical sophistication with practical business strategy.
