All Up In: Creative Law with Kiffanie Stahle

We are thrilled to have Kiffanie Stahle on the show with us today. She is a lawyer who is helping creatives add ease to their legal lease since 2011, and she lives full-time in her RV with her pup Ozzy. We dive into the episode as Kiffanie shares the low-down on all things RV-living, including why she decided to become an RVer and why learning to trust your gut is of vital importance! We hear the story of how she ultimately wound up in creative law, from being an armchair lawyer, taking the LSAT on a bet, and ending up in law school. She unpacks why she gets nerdy about contracts, how her attorney licensing works, and details the use and function of Usury laws. She shares valuable insights regarding different clauses and other aspects of law, including the difference between an S Corp and an LLC, and walks us through her book, The Legal Roadmap for Your Creative Business: A Strategy to Protect Your Assets Without Legal Confusion.
