Editorial : Legal Guide for the Visual Artist is essential for both the beginning artist and the seasoned art professional. It demystifies the legal issues all artists must understand to survive in the business of art. I recommend it to all artists, and use it as a text in legal classes for artists -- Timothy S. Kelley, Director of Legal Services, Lawyers for the Creative Arts
I've been in business for forty years and the book enlightened me in ways I didn't even know I was stupid. It's an incredibly well-done book. Just buy the book, don't ask questions. Just buy it. If you don't like it, I'll give you your money back -- Jay Maisel, photographer

This book is exactly what the title says it is a Legal Guide for the Visual Artist. A really important book for a photographer who's starting business in usa. Used early 1989 edition quite a bit.

The guide provides examples of forms that might be needed and gives examples of famous cases that have occurred with pictures to help in understanding them. The book
