The Tuition
THE TEACHER
Hey, I am Grant.
I'm a lawyer, but I'm also a creative and an entrepreneur. I became a lawyer to help my creative friends, and when I couldn’t find my dream law firm to work for, I set out to make my own from scratch. I know firsthand how overwhelming it can feel to start your own business, and legal is probably the last thing you want to deal with.
I am here to bridge the gap and make your entrepreneur life easier. I’ve helped over one thousand designers, coaches, planners, influencers, start-ups, and other creatives get their legal together, and here I have distilled my wisdom into simple courses and offerings to help you check business legal off your to-do list.
From one creative entrepreneur to another: you've got this.
