New Legal Resources added to Site.
Do you have a business idea and don’t know where to start? Do you have a creative idea that you want to protect? Do you even know where to start to look into these issues?

Well, Triangle ArtWorks is here to help. A great team of law students from UNC Law School’s Pro Bono Program has scoured the internet for you and pulled together a list of the best resources and links they could find on the issues of business form and copyright. Although these resource pages are not a substitute for legal advice and CERTAINLY should not be used as such, they are a good place to start. We have done that first search for you, saving you the time of searching the internet and wasting time on irrelevant sites.
So far, we have loaded new sections of the Resource Directory on Copyright/Trademark and Starting a For-Profit Business. We will be adding resources on Contracts and other business forms after the first of the year.
But wait, there’s more…..
Pulling together these resources is just the first step. Now that we have the basics on the site, ArtWorks will start looking at other ways to help fill the legal needs of the community. Some possibilities we are looking at are articles on relevant legal topics, short talks or “ask a lawyer” session on general or specialized topics, or development of a Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts-type program.
If you want to help or have input for us on programs or needs, let us know!
