I’m Chanise Anderson, Esq., the founder of MarkSetGo Law, P.C. I wear many hats—attorney, entrepreneur, real estate broker, life insurance producer, mother and wife, but the thread that ties it all together is my passion for helping people protect and grow what they’ve worked hard to build.
I began my career focused on intellectual property, helping creators and business owners secure their brands. But I quickly saw a bigger need: many clients were protecting their logos but leaving their businesses, real estate, or family wealth vulnerable. That realization led me to expand my practice into full-scale asset protection combining business law, estate planning, and wealth strategies under one roof.
My clients trust me because I not only understand the legal side, but I also live the entrepreneurial journey myself. I know the risks business owners face, the sacrifices families make, and the legacy parents want to leave. That’s why I built MarkSetGo Law to be a firm that clients can turn to for both legal solutions and peace of mind.
Whether you’re a first-time entrepreneur, a seasoned business owner, or a family planning for the future, I’m here to guide you with clarity, strategy, and care. My goal is to make the law understandable, actionable, and most importantly—impactful for your life and legacy.
As a Christian-based firm, we are guided by the principles of Colossians 3:23-24, striving to serve our clients with excellence and commitment in everything we do. Our goal is to provide not just legal solutions, but peace of mind, knowing that your business and personal assets are secure.
We handle all documentation, hearings, and reporting requirements — making sure everything is done correctly and on time.
