Beyond the Code E70: Lawyers for Innovators: Building a Creative Legal Practice with Vivek Jayaram
What if your law firm felt more like an art studio than a courtroom?
In this episode of Beyond the Code, Yitzy sits down with Vivek Jayaram, founder of Jayaram Law and one of the most creative minds in the legal space. They go deep on how Vivek built a law firm that refuses to look or act like one, why authenticity and originality are at the heart of his practice, and how he went from Big Law burnout to representing the most interesting names in tech, fashion, and digital art.
They talked about:
🎸 Growing up on guitar solos, Bulls championships, and indie film;
🎨 His early vision for a “law firm for creators,” long before it was cool
🧠 The firm’s unique mission to enable original ideas—not just win cases;
🧾 How Jayaram Law became a go-to shop for NFTs, and digital artists;
💥 Why your legal practice should feel more like a cultural movement than a service business.
Vivek also shares reflections on IP law, digital authenticity, and Vivek's wildly popular (and highly recommended by yours tuly) Taylor Swift IP Course, Blank Spaces.
Whether you're a lawyer, a founder, an artist—or all three—this is an inspiring look at what legal practice can look like when it breaks out of the mold.
