Setting Up a Business that Protects You

Every creative enterprise, from an individual photographer to a multi-person musical group, should be aware of their risks and liabilities. Thankfully, there are some simple protections that small businesses can put in place to protect their work. Allie Moore with Creatives Learn Law will walk you through the basics of forming an LLC business entity and other ways to protect your creative business.

This virtual training will cover:

  • Types of business entities and why an LLC might be right for you
  • Steps in forming and maintaining your LLC
  • Additional ways to protect your business from liability, such as contracts and insurance

Feel free to send questions in advance to main@cbca.org.

About Allie Moore, Creatives Learn Law

“I’ve been a photographer since 2006, the year I met my husband in a high school darkroom.  I’ve been a lawyer since 2017, the year I worked for a justice on the Colorado Supreme Court after graduating from law school near the top of my class.

In 2019, having worked for a national law firm and the Colorado Attorney General’s office, I realized that I was always meant to work with other small business owners. I’m here to give peace of mind to entrepreneurs who started their own business so they could be in control of their career.

Beyond representing clients in my own firm, I teach students how to represent small business and nonprofits in the Community Economic Development Clinic at Denver Law.  And I’m still operating our photo and video company, Wood Box Studios.
