Lawyers with 10+ Years of Affiliate Experience

Need an affiliate marketing lawyer to help with FTC compliance, affiliate agreements, business formation, taxes, and more? You came to the right place!

Affiliate marketing can be immensely profitable, but it’s also rife with legal risk if you don’t have an experienced affiliate marketing attorney by your side. Gordon Law Group has more than 10 years of experience advising affiliate marketers, advertisers, and affiliate networks.

Contact Gordon Law Group online or call (847) 580-1279 to schedule a confidential consultation!

Here are some of the services we offer to help affiliate marketers rise to the top:

FTC Defense

Have you received a subpoena or Civil Investigative Demand (CID) from the FTC? Then there’s no time to lose—call our experienced FTC defense lawyers now at (847) 580-1279. We’ve successfully helped clients stop, and even reverse, FTC enforcement actions!

Affiliate Marketing Compliance

We understand that in order to succeed as an affiliate marketer or influencer, you need to move fast and embrace new technologies—but an FTC lawsuit can tank your business faster than you can say “ROAS.”

We help you remain compliant with advertising laws and avoid legal pitfalls, without slowing you down. 

These are just a few of the affiliate marketing laws you need to be aware of:

  • Section 5 of the FTC Act
  • CAN-SPAM Act
  • Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA)
  • General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)
  • Restore Online Shoppers Confidence Act (ROSCA)
  • Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA)
  • California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA)
  • California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA)
  • The Lanham Act (Trademark Act of 1946)
  • Dot-com Disclosures

Starting an Affiliate Marketing Business

Properly registering a business is key to protecting your assets and minimizing your affiliate marketing taxes. Whether you want to create one LLC or several, or even form a business offshore, our attorneys can help!

Business formation services include:

  • LLC formation
  • C-corp formation
  • S-corp election
  • Offshore business formation
  • Customized operating agreement or partnership agreement
  • Trademark, copyright, and IP services
  • Ongoing annual report and registered agent services

If you’re not sure where to register your business or which entity is right for you, we’ll provide clear guidance for your unique situation.

Affiliate Agreements and Contract Law

A strong affiliate marketing agreement helps you maximize profits and minimize risk. Such an essential document should never be trusted to a generic template! Our affiliate marketing lawyers can create a customized Master Service Agreement (the template that all your contracts will follow), as well as negotiate individual affiliate marketing contracts.

Influencers, advertisers, and affiliate networks each have their own unique concerns when it comes to affiliate agreements. We’ve prepared and negotiated contracts on all sides, so we know exactly what you need to look out for.

We can also help with any other business contracts you may need for affiliate marketing, including:

  • Partnership agreements
  • Independent contractor agreements
  • Investor agreements
  • Licensing agreements
  • Asset purchase agreements

…and more! Contact us to get started.

Intellectual Property Law

As a content creator or advertiser, intellectual property may be your most valuable asset. We help you protect it! If you need help with copyrights, trademarks, licensing rights, or resolving an intellectual property dispute, our attorneys have you covered.

Terms of Service and Privacy Policy

The terms of service and privacy policy for your website can offer protection in the unfortunate event of legal disputes. As digital privacy becomes increasingly important (and increasingly regulated), neglecting these documents could leave you vulnerable to lawsuits.

Although cookie usage is typically included in your privacy policy, online marketers may wish to create a more comprehensive cookie policy for extra protection. Our experienced affiliate marketing lawyers can help with all of these essential legal documents!

“Extremely knowledgeable, detail-oriented, and understanding of my business needs for both legal advice and accounting/tax services.

Mergers and Acquisitions: Buying or Selling an Affiliate Marketing Business
