About Session
This session will focus on equipping indie and emerging studios with the top legal lessons I wish I had known earlier- and that we wish we could download to all! We will walk through common pitfalls around contracts, hiring across borders, IP ownership and assignments, record-keeping, marketing claims, taxes, and more. Using real-world examples and “war stories”, we will show how small decisions in the early stages of a project can either create expensive problems later, or avoid them entirely.
The session also demystifies when and how to seek legal advice, how to prepare for those conversations, and how to save money and time when dealing with professionals.
