Hillsborough Mom Of Two Runs Law Firm & Dessert Company
From small-business owners to television sitcom actors, recording artists, authors and a nationally known dessert company, Patricia Lawrence Kolaras is the woman behind securing the logos, lyrics, scripts and the secret recipe.
Kolaras, 41, an intellectual property and transactional attorney and founder of the township-based PLK Law Group, said her job is to protect the intellectual property of her clients. Intellectual-property law includes copyright, trademark, unfair competition, trade secrets, trademark dilution and domain-name disputes. The firm also focuses on aspects of transactional law, including drafting, negotiating and enforcing contract deals.
Kolaras, a mother of two, said the mission of her firm is to educate clients about the legal impact of their business practices and to communicate the law in a way that clients can understand. Kolaras’ combination of legal expertise and entrepreneurial skills led her to close a high-profile, multimillion dollar deal for Tracey Hughes, founder and chief executive officer of the nationally known Rum Cake Fairy Dessert Company, which recently was endorsed by Oprah Winfrey’s O List.
Kolaras, who now serves as co-owner of the dessert company, was able to secure the company’s trade-secret recipe.
Another client is Divine Diamonds, the originator of the famed “Ah Ring.”
