Upscale Law is a woman-owned small business in St. Louis, MO. We know what you are experiencing as you start, develop, and scale your company. We only sell you what your business needs! If you don’t need it, we don’t sell it. We understand how incredibly valuable your dollars are, and we don’t take that lightly. We love biz owners because that’s what we are. We can see your business as a whole because we’re living the same entrepreneurial life.
Courtney English has never seen someone work a “regular job”. Both of her parents were entrepreneurs and she grew up with the hustle of self-employment being a deeply ingrained value in her family. From a young age, Courtney spent much time helping with every aspect of her family’s business; from manual labor all the way to learning the books. She knows that running a business is a round-the-clock job, and your work should be protected.
While in law school, Courtney started two successful businesses. She knows that it takes work and focus to make your dream a reality, and she ensures that your dream is built on a solid foundation!
In addition to her self-employment, Courtney has worked in-house for multi-million dollar corporations negotiating, reviewing, and drafting contracts, as well as assisting in business formation and protection. Her superior drafting skills and experience make her an ideal attorney to help you navigate your business at all stages.
Further, Courtney has worked for small boutique firms in personal injury and criminal law, as well as time in the State Attorney’s Office in the state of Florida. She knows that a stigma can be attached to traditional lawyering and aims to break that mold so that you are comfortable seeking counsel and feel empowered when working with an attorney. After all, it is your business.
Outside of the office, Courtney enjoys serving her community, the outdoors, and spending time with her family.
