WHO AM I? I'm an intellectual property lawyer who works with creative professionals like web designers, game developers, and Youtubers. Some of my clients are the biggest internet personalities in the world with millions of Youtube subscribers, Twitter followers, and millions in endorsement deal revenue. But at the end of the day they're still 1-5 employee creative businesses like the one you have or would like to start.

WHY DID I CREATE THIS? I've advised literally 100's of aspiring creatives for free out of the kindness of my own heart over the years. To ensure that I could help as many people as possible, even the people who can't pay may rate as an attorney, I am building this course. My goal is to ensure that you take the path of least resistance and most reward. I used to be a graphic designer and filmmaker myself after all, so I want to give back to creators/freelancers.

I want to see entrepreneurs and creatives who want create jobs and create art succeed. I'd like your new ideas to change the world. I want to empower you to understand of the law now so it doesn't get in your way later. Problems that are easy to solve now can cost a fortune to fix later.
