Created by an experienced lawyer
Law of Course, The 5-Step Legal Plan for Online Course Creators, and the Online Courses and Legal Stuff ebook series are the creations of Richard Best, a lawyer who has been working on the legal stuff for 25 years, first as a litigator and then as a technology and commercial lawyer, in both in-house and law firm roles. He has practised law in three countries and been exposed to the laws of many more. His practice sees him getting deeply involved in matters relating to technology, contracting, intellectual property, privacy, and social media, to name a few. He’s a lawyer that gets into the trenches too, having created his own blogs, ebooks and audiobook, his own and others’ websites, online contract generation tools, an online privacy toolkit, and his own courses. You’re in safe hands.
The 5-Step Legal Plan and ebooks have been designed for course creators in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand.
