Most creative professionals don’t have access to affordable legal advice. There are special legal protections creative entrepreneurs need.
That’s why you need a lawyer in your corner who knows the business — a lawyer “dedicated to the creators, innovators and entrepreneurs.”
Our firm’s virtual legal services for creative professionals are accessible anywhere you’re making your unique mark on the world. Wherever you are, we can help.

What We Do Not Do:
- Offer free consultations or legal advice. Why? (Read Here)
- Work on contingency.
- Price match or negotiate our fees
- Sell template contracts
- Give you a work product that appears to be fill-in-the-blanks of an internet template
There are services out there that offer these services, possibly at the price point you’re looking for, and we aren’t offended if that is the route you choose.
We are confident in the expertise, work products, and outcomes we bring to the table, and our services and fees reflect this.

One of our greatest passions is helping talented foreign nationals obtain O-visas,P-visas, EB-1 and EB-2 national-interest waiver green cards. We also help these individuals protect their U.S.-based businesses, brands and creative work.
You want to live and work while being location independent. The U.S. does not yet have a specific visa for this purpose, but we can help you make sure you're legally set for your adventure.
We will never ghost you; we believe clients need to be actively involved in their cases. We believe integrity and character matter.
We offer flat fees for most services. You’ll be made aware of any fees and offered options before you’recharged. Legal fees shouldn’t bust your budget.
Educating our clients about how the legal system can safeguard your business or creative assets and protect your bottom line is an important part of our service. Risk prevention is key. The key to prevention is education and knowledge you can implement into your business model, trainings or other aspects where it matters most.

Small business has become a popular buzz term for people who want to express at least a base level of care for the local community and its people.

Copyright law is a perfect example of such a risk.
