In this section, you will find a myriad of topics, all of which are key to a successful basic legal understanding of your role and rights as an artist and/or business person.  Many of these issues permeate all creative disciplines... others are situation specific.  This is the "meat" of what you'll most likely run into and need to understand. To the right are some PDF files from the Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts in St. Louis.

Take a minute, or a few... or an hour, or a few... to familiarize yourself with these issues.  Even a little bit of knowledge will help you to be prepared for whatever may arise.

But remember... these pages are here to educate, not to give you legal advice.
