Are you an attorney with experience working with creative professionals and/or small business owners? We are currently seeking attorneys to join a web-based collective that offers creative entrepreneurs referrals to attorneys who understand the specific concerns and challenges inherent in structuring and maintaining a creative business, protecting art and other creations and dealing with business disputes.

We are currently seeking attorneys that meet the following qualifications:
- Currently licensed to practice law in at least one U.S. state
- Have at least 1 -- 2 years of practice experience
- Have own solo or small law practice, or are interested in setting up a solo practice
- Have substantial experience in one or more of the following areas: contract drafting and negotiation; formation of business entities; intellectual property (primarily trademark, copyright & trade secret); general business law counsel (particularly small businesses); business litigation
- Are interested in joining a collaborative environment and learning more about helping creatives
- Must carry malpractice insurance (or procure it prior to admission in the collective)
- No stuffy, stodgy lawyers, please! We're looking for lawyers that can understand and communicate with creative entrepreneurs in a way that makes the law a little less intimidating to the right-brained set.
- Bonus points if you have a creative background yourself! (musician, painter, dancer, writer, etc.)

If you meet the above qualifications and are interested in being considered for membership, please reply to this posting with an email containing a short overview of your experience with and interest in working with creative professionals (in the body of your email), and attach your resume as a Word document or PDF attachment.

If you can see this posting, we are still accepting submissions. Due to the volume of responses, we cannot reply to every submission, but we will keep all submissions on file and notify you in the event that you meet the requirements of the collective and fit the criteria of any open space in the collective based on your geographic location/licensure, practice area(s) and experience.
