Don't Panic will prepare you for legal issues you'll encounter as a creator or entrepreneur.

Whether you are a start-up, a filmmaker, a musician, an author, or another creator, this book will help you understand what you need to know and how to avoid getting sued.

The book covers a range of legal situations that may arise, from the inception of your business or the creation of your work to that dreaded moment (that hopefully doesn't happen) you get a nasty lawyer letter for the first time. While this book is not a substitute for legal advice, it can serve as a valuable guide to preventing and resolving legal issues.

The book is organized to help you quickly jump to specific information that will help you through that stage of your work. There are short, straight-to-the-point summaries throughout called "The Bottom Line", providing the essentials you need to know.

You'll learn how to form your business, protect your intellectual property, understand E&O insurance, and avoid problems when launching an app or Internet-based service. Often you can take a few simple steps upfront that will protect your business or creative works and ultimately save time and money down the road.

great primer

a great primer for creators at early stages of their projects and managers at all levels who want to understand the basics of legal issues that they would otherwise not be able to spot

Good basic legal book

Excellent basic book on legal, especially for artists and digital creators. I'd recommend it to anyone interested in copyright law and basic LLC set up.
