Steve Edmiston, Of Counsel
Steve Edmiston boasts 14 years of expertise in business law, complex commercial litigation, licensing, venture financing and intellectual property protection. More importantly—and more interestingly—for his clients, Steve was co-founder and president of Front Porch Classics, creator of classic “coffee table games,” such as Dread Pirate, Old Century Stretch Run and Master & Commander.
Before joining Invicta, Steve managed the Company’s trademark, copyright and licensing portfolio including Sony's Game Show Television Network, Major League Baseball and 20th Century Fox, and guided the company through venture capitalization and negotiating deals for distribution with Barnes & Noble, Nordstrom, Amazon.com and Toys-R-Us.
In synch with their space
“Having run a venture-backed business, I’m become a far better counselor,” he says. “I understand the challenges growing businesses face and I’m proactive about how to launch, market and protect creative ideas.”
Steve himself has developed several award-winning board games, has written two screenplays made into feature films and has a third film he’s set to produce in 2006.
“I’ve walked in my client’s shoes—in the business world, I’ve probably made some of the same mistakes they have,” he says. “I can protect them from similar missteps, so they can achieve the success their ideas and talents deserve.”
