INK™ stands for Ivy, Newburn & Knight — the founding attorneys Patrick Ivy, Ryan Newburn, and Jedi Knight. INK is a Colorado-based business and corporate law firm delivering strategic legal counsel for every stage of business, from startup formation through complex litigation. Agile, lower overhead than BigLaw, and built to grow with their clients.
