History
Previously, I had a part-time solo law practice that I started in 2006 based entirely on word-of-mouth. Subsequently, I launched Creative Vision Legal in 2014 to address three problems I observed in the current legal services market: 1. Traditional legal representation, when based on the billable hour, is too expensive; 2. Many artists, musicians, and small business people may be wary of lawyers for a variety of reasons; 3. Artists, musicians, and small business people face a morass of legal issues, especially in the intellectual property field, which can be esoteric and hard to conceptualize for some. To address these problems, I offer flat-fee pricing, and include 30-minute consultations with my legal service packages. Creative Vision Legal is my attempt to meld my previous legal experience and love of the artistic process and its results with the core values I have identified as missing from much of the current state of online legal services.
