Stokes Lawrence partnered with the Seattle Chocolate Company to protect its exciting new brand by securing the “MAEVE CHOCOLATE” trademark. Queen Maeve was a mythical Celtic queen; the word means “she who intoxicates or causes joy”—perfect for a luxury chocolate brand. Our creative, strategic IP approach ensured the company could confidently launch its new MAEVE identity.
