ABOUT

About Tamara

Tamara Pester Schklar built her career protecting ideas, names, and reputations. As founder of TMBTQ, a boutique trademark law firm, she spent over two decades guiding business owners — from multi-generational family companies to global brands — in protecting their intellectual property and ensuring their advertising complied with federal law.

​

Tamara works with founders, firm owners, and leadership teams on high-impact brand and intellectual property issues that shape long-term enterprise value.  Her work is selective, primarily by referral, and focused on situations where judgment matters more than volume. She does not operate a volume practice and accepts limited engagements each year.

​

Recognized as a Colorado Super Lawyer in trademark law since 2020, Tamara has served as outside counsel to international corporations, senior counsel on complex litigation, and an expert witness in high-stakes trademark disputes. Her expertise extends to emerging issues such as protecting works created with artificial intelligence, positioning her clients at the forefront of today’s legal landscape.

Beyond the Office:
A Denver native, Tamara embraces the mountain lifestyle — skiing in winter, hiking in summer, and seeking out spa escapes year-round. She and her husband, Brett, support local and national charities through a Donor Advised Fund.
