Ready to protect your ass(ets) without legal confusion?
Hi, I’m Kiff, your friendly legal eagle, and I’d love to help you with that!
Every day I work with creative businesses like yours to add ease to the legalese. And believe me, I know how overwhelming and confusing it can be.
First off, there’s the almost foreign language that you must decipher.
Then you have to understand which tasks actually matter based on what your business does, what stage you are at, and where you are trying to go.
And finally, you need to weigh the risks. Do you have to act now? Or can you wait until your big break happens, you hit that goal, or an opportunity arises?
Since 2011, I’ve been helping creative business owners like you do these three things. And I know that together we can find a better, easier way to grow your creative business with legal protections in mind.
There are three ways we can work together to add ease to the legalese.
#1: You can sign up for my newsletter
I share my favorite practical and actionable tips and tricks to protect your ass(ets) without legal confusion right in your inbox. It’s a free (and easy) way to start adding a little ease to the legalese.

#3: You can take a course or workshop
Joining the artist’s Courtyard membership community is the most cost-effective method of getting access to these courses and workshops.
But if you’d rather dip your toes in or if joining the artist’s Courtyard isn’t for you, then a few of them are available à la carte!
