Getting Legal Peace of Mind With Maria Spear Ollis

Get ready to learn a lot about trademark law during this conversation with Maria Spear Ollis, a Nashville-based lawyer bringing peace of mind to coaches and thought leaders.

If you’ve ever wondered how content can be protected during this current climate of content sharing, this is the episode for you. You don’t have to work yourself up into a lather worrying about copywriting your material because we know that as health entrepreneurs, you already have enough on your plate, but it’s always good to seek to understand how it works.

In this conversation, Maria shares with us how having a registered copyright applies to our work as coaches, how to choose which content to protect, and what type of content is protectable. She also covers actionable topics such as how to find out if your content has been stolen, what coaches should have in place from the beginning, what a contract is for, and how to use the TM and R symbols.

Maria Spear Ollis brings some real clarity to the difference between liability waivers and contract documents. And Laura, Erin and Maria do a deep dive into when you need a disclaimer, for whom, and why they can be very important. And if you have been afraid to look into liability insurance, LLCs or partnerships, Maria has some specific advice on that.

So, see what you take away from this pretty cool and interesting conversation about all the (maybe not so) intimidating legal stuff.
