Yeah, that’s actually a thing. And it’s pretty cool. Like most other jobs in Entertainment law, it incorporates working with contracts, as well as navigating IP law. According to Ryan Morrision, an actual, live “video game lawyer,” a lot of his work involves providing legal help to small startups with cool ideas for games and apps. They often need help with things like incorporating, legally hiring freelancers to do some of the work, trademarking their games, and setting up privacy policies.
