At Indies Unlimited, we happily provide as many useful resources as possible to help writers. When the subject area is beyond our expertise or experience, we try to point folks toward other resources that may be useful. One of the areas with which writers may need assistance from time-to-time is with matters of a legal nature.
Whether you have concerns about a contract, copyright issues, tax considerations, intellectual property, or other legal issues, the following links may be helpful to you:
