Discussing Intellectual Property Law and Fandom Spaces

Fandom and intellectual property have an interesting relationship. Intellectual property law is complicated, and often inaccessible to non-lawyers who want to understand risks and make informed choices. With this site, I aim to provide accessible information to fan artists, cosplayers, and other people in fandom spaces to help everyone make informed decisions and know when it might be best to contact a lawyer. My goal is to be a resource, to make complicated legal concepts accessible to anyone who wants to understand them, and to help make sure that everyone has basic access to legal knowledge that could impact them.
