How Can We Help You?

Federal Copyright Protection

Copyright law has a broad application to created content. It’s not just reserved for songs, books, and movies – a copyright can protect things like streamer assets, code, emojis, page themes, social media content, merch design, and even avatars. We can help identify what content is ready for protection – both the most important and the least obvious – and help you protect it at the federal level.

Federal and International Trademark Protection

A strong brand can help you stand out in the uniquely competitive online landscape, and trademark registration is a pivotal tool to establish your brand online. Trademark registration not only gives you exclusive use of your name, logo, and taglines across the U.S. (and potentially the world), it also prevents others from using any brand too similar. Not to mention fast-tracking registry with private platforms like Amazon and YouTube.

Platform Brand Registry Assistance

Content platforms have ramped up trademark protocols on their platforms. Led by Amazon and its Brand Registry Program , the trend for companies like YouTube and Twitch is now to encourage and, in some cases, require trademark registration for its sellers and content creators. We can lead the brand registry process and interface between the government and private platforms so you can focus on what matters to you: content and community.

Contractor Agreements & IP Ownership Statements

It takes a team behind the scenes to get your business moving. Artists, programmers, social media managers, moderators – these contractors help you build your online presence from the ground up. The content and assets they create should be part of a fair and collaborative contract agreement, one that clearly states who will own the work product and intellectual property. DR&A can help you draft a personalized contractor agreement that addresses all the nuances of the content creator niche.

Business Creation (LLC Filings & Tax ID/EIN Application)

As a content creator, you’ll need to launch a legal company to house your content, IP, operations, and finances. We’ll help you select the best entity for you – an LLC, a corporation, or something more niche – and file in your state of choice. We’ll also obtain a Tax ID Number (also known as an Employer Identification Number or EIN) from the IRS for tax purposes.
