WELCOME!

THE CREATOR'S ATTORNEY COLLECTIVE

Why should only the top 1% of creators who can afford to pay my hourly rate get access to me? That doesn't sit right with me. 

What about the other 99%?

Every creator, whether you're working on your first upload or first 6-figure brand deal, should get access to the legal protections that I offer to my clients. 

Here you will learn how to protect your channel and grow your creator business.

PROTECT YOUR CHANNEL. GROW YOUR BRAND. BUILD A BUSINESS THAT LASTS.

A creator community led by Hollywood attorney-turned-YouTuber Tyler Chou where creators learn how to safeguard their IP, negotiate brand deals, and scale from content maker to CEO. Watch this.

DOES THIS SOUND LIKE YOU?

  • You're on a hamster wheel of content creation and brand deals.
  • You're terrified of getting a copyright strike or getting sued.
  • You think: I need to figure it all out myself because hiring a lawyer is too expensive.
  • Overwhelmed by legal jargon in contracts you're signing
  • Anxious every time you post, wondering if you're violating someone's rights
  • Fear of looking "difficult" or "high maintenance" to brands
  • Lack of confidence in negotiations without knowing industry standards.
  • No legal protection for your growing business 

WELL, JUST IMAGINE IF...

  • Opening your inbox to find a 5-figure brand deal and knowing EXACTLY what to ask for (and what clauses to reject)

  • Building a creator business that investors and buyers take seriously because it's structured like a real company
  • Going from $10k to $100k months without the legal growing pains that sink most creators
  • Having the "magic words" that get brands to increase their offers by 20-50%
  • Knowing when to form an LLC vs S-Corp (and why timing matters for your wallet)
  • Sleeping soundly knowing your channel, content, and growing revenue are legally protected
  • You're confident to turn down bad deals because better ones are coming
  • You have time to focus on content instead of panicking over legal research
  • You have peace of mind that your creator dreams won't become legal nightmares

EVERY CREATOR DESERVES THE SAME PROTECTION AND GROWTH STRATEGY.

CLIENT LOVE NOTES
SHE HAS PROTECTED ME AGAINST PREDATORY DEALS AND BAD CONTRACTS.

I've been working with Tyler for two years now, and she has protected me against predatory deals and bad contracts. Tyler is actively helping me grow my business to seven figures and is an essential part of my team.

THE TYLER CHOU LAW FIRM SAVED MY BUTT IN A VERY STICKY SITUATION.
They helped me navigate a potentially huge problem that occurred while filming a sponsored series. They guided me through what to share publicly and helped draft an agreement that turned a potential problem into a positive outcome. I’ll definitely keep working with them on future projects.

TYLER HAS NEGOTIATED AND REDLINED OVER 20 BRAND DEALS FOR ME.

I was Tyler's first client. I encouraged her to start her law firm for Creators. Tyler has been with me for almost two years now and has helped me support my community launches as well as negotiated and redlined over 20 brand deals for me.

WITHOUT TYLER IN MY CORNER I PROBABLY WOULD'VE BEEN PAID LESS AND MY RIGHTS NOT FULLY PROTECTED.

Tyler is great. She has helped me negotiate and redline big brand deals and without Tyler in my corner I probably would’ve been paid less and my rights not fully protected. There was one brand deal where they almost did not want to pay us, but Tyler went to bat for me and made sure they paid.

James, @JaDroppingscience, 2.2M
I'VE REFERRED HER DOZENS OF TIMES TO CREATORS I KNOW

Too many Creators are exposed - legally speaking. When I met Tyler a year ago, beginning work with her was a no-brainer as I started considering brand deals to ensure I had the right terms and protections in place. Since we started working together, she's helped me create contracts for my corporate speaking & training business, and now we're working on a much-needed upgrade of my product and website terms and conditions and ensuring I have protective language in place to protect me and my customers. I've referred her dozens of times to Creators I know, so of course I'd recommend her to you as well.

MEET TYLER – YOUR GUIDE INSIDE

HI, I'M TYLER THE CREATOR'S ATTORNEY

For 18 years I was a Hollywood studio lawyer. Then I launched my own YouTube channel and fell in love with the creator community, their drive, their independence, their magic.

 

That passion led me to start a law firm representing some of the biggest creators in the world. But there was a problem: only the top one percent could afford my hourly rate. Every creator deserves the same protection and growth strategy. The Creator’s Attorney Collective is my answer.

WHERE IVE SPOKEN:
  • VidSummit
  • VidCon
  • MIT
  • Cannes Lions
  • 1 Billion Followers Summit

MEET THE GUEST EXPERTS

Guests will include big creators (my clients) to start and will include in the future heads of brands and experts in the creator economy. You will help Tyler choose from a long list of confirmed guests.
Jenny Hoyos

The 20-year-old YouTube prodigy who cracked the code on short-form content. Jenny built her empire before she could legally sign her own contracts. Known for her data-obsessed approach and brutally honest content breakdowns, she's the creator other creators study—with videos regularly hitting 10M+ views and brand deals that make CMOs jealous. Her infectious energy and *test everything* mentality has made her the go-to expert for creators who want to turn viral moments into sustainable businesses. From speaking on the TED stage to creating content for YouTube for the Olympics, Jenny is THE powerhouse creators want to emulate. 

Tyler has been with Jenny from the start and helped structure her business empire from the ground up, ensuring every revenue stream is legally bulletproof. 

Steve Hyunh

From Amazon engineer to YouTube sensation, Steve transformed complex engineering job interview and performance review concepts into binge-worthy content that generates millions of views and multiple 7-figure revenue streams. His methodical approach to content creation mirros his engineering background — every video is optimized, every sponsorship maximized, and every business decision calculated for long-term growth. Steve's dry humor and unexpected viral moments have made him a master at turning niche expertise into mass appeal. 

With Tyler's legal guidance, he's built one of the most sophisticated creator businesses in the education space, complete with courses, consulting, and brand deals that engineers dream about. 

Message from Tyler:
It is my life's mission to protect creators and grow their empires.
 

Here is a longer video from Tyler because as a fellow creator, we all have a longer video inside us.  And Tyler is so excited to finally get to talk to her community!
