Launching a business isn’t easy, but protecting it can be. Robert Wright is an E-commerce and online business Attorney who is an expert in helping entrepreneurs protect their personal assets, bulletproof their brand, and weaponize their works of authorship.

Robert Wright is the founding partner of Superhero Legal, a virtual law practice that helps e-commerce sellers and online business owners protect their digital and physical assets.

A sister company to Marketplace Superheroes, Superhero Legal has advised thousands of E-Commerce sellers on how to future-proof their business.

To better understand the needs of his clients, Robert launched his own physical products business and currently sells on globally Amazon.

Robert’s interest in intellectual property began more than two decades ago. Intrigued by the lawsuit that led to Napster being shut down by the RIAA back in early 2001, Robert headed into Law School with a mission to find out what was so wrong with ‘sharing songs’ with friends. That quest spurred an interest in intellectual property law (where he learned the difference between sharing and stealing!).

That mission spurred Robert's interest in entrepreneurship. While discovering his own entrepreneurial path, Robert noticed that other entrepreneurs often need help navigating the ins and outs of intellectual property. When he decided to launch his first virtual law practice, it was a no-brainer for him to support folks who had an idea and were looking to build a business around it.
