How can an affiliate marketing lawyer help you?

Do you have more questions about our solution?

Affiliate marketing companies have many complex laws to comply with, but the number one agency you want to avoid is the FTC. This government watchdog monitors for unfair and deceptive marketing tactics; a lawsuit from the FTC can tank your business overnight. At Gordon Law, we’ve successfully helped clients stop, and even reverse, FTC enforcement actions! We help you remain compliant with advertising and digital privacy laws, so you don’t have to worry about legal pitfalls that could devastate your affiliate marketing business.
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!
If you’re advertising any cryptocurrency projects, NFTs, or dApps, you need to be extra careful with advertising and marketing compliance. Crypto influencers can be sued by the SEC as well as the FTC, and the industry is under heavy scrutiny. Contact Gordon Law to avoid red flags in your crypto advertising!

The terms of service and privacy policy for your affiliate marketing websites 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, affiliate marketing businesses may wish to create a more comprehensive cookie policy for extra protection.

Our experienced online business lawyers can help with all of these essential legal documents!

Outside general counsel services are an affordable option for influencers and affiliate marketers who don’t have the need or budget for in-house counsel.

The FTC is a ruthless opponent. Keep your business safe with ongoing 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.
