In 2021, Pikes Peak SBDC had 695 active clients, and offered 1,573 consulting sessions, Shakes said, and the community sees it as the first stop for anyone looking to start or expand a business.

Law Firm
Stinar Zendejas Burrell & Wilhelmi, PLLC
Name a legal issue, and Stinar Zendejas Burrell & Wilhelmi, PLLC can almost always handle it — with an eye towards helping clients understand complex litigation.
The firm has an “all-encompassing” team of 11 attorneys, whose areas of specialization include estate and business planning, commercial litigation, divorce and probate law, serving a mix of business and individual clients, said Managing Partner Ian Burrell.
“It’s definitely not a one-size-fits-all legal solution,” said Burrell, who’s been with the firm since 2015. “It’s usually custom-tailored to [a client’s] specific issue.”
Burrell said the firm takes a “very hands-on” approach to legal services. Attorneys conduct an analysis of clients’ legal issues right away and are committed to staying by their side throughout the litigation process.
“We don’t just provide them with analysis and then drop them,” Burrell said. “We’ll do some hand-holding along the way.”

Office Equipment
OfficeScapes
Ask OfficeScapes CEO Peter Husak why the company is appreciated by the Colorado Springs community and he has a few ideas.
“One is our people and two is our culture,” he says. “No. 3 is in our school business — we are moving the needle, [helping to create spaces for] educating kids in Colorado.”
Husak calls learning environments “the third teacher” after the parent and the teacher, and says the company takes pride in supporting the education of the next generation.
OfficeScapes employees are active in community volunteerism, and the company also does business with many Colorado nonprofits, helping to outfit their spaces. “We’ve got amazing design knowledge, with almost 40 years experience,” Husak said.
In addition to its own products and office equipment support, OfficeScapes offers consultation, installation and even liquidation assistance.
