The Right-Fit Legal Solution Built For A Business Like Yours

The Fine Print Academy™ is a membership that gives online business owners ongoing access to attorneys, done-for-you legal templates, and a library of legal training - built specifically for how online businesses like yours actually operate.

You know legal coverage is smart. But unless you’ve built your business foundations with the guidance of an attorney, you likely have costly blind spots that leave your business unnecessarily at risk.

The AWB Firm — one of the only law firms in the country built specifically for online business owners — built the Fine Print Academy on a simple philosophy: legal protection should feel like clarity, understanding, RELIEF, and empowerment– not intimidation.

You don't need a $450/hour retainer to get real legal guidance. You need ongoing access to attorneys who already understand how online businesses actually operate at a price point your business can fit into your budget.

The Red Flag Review — an attorney look at your most-used contract or policy

An attorney review of your most-used contract or policy, line by line, with flags telling you exactly where you're exposed.

This is your chance to find out what's actually in your paperwork instead of hoping it's fine. We'll walk through your document and build a punch list of what to fix first — and of course, we help you fix them inside the Academy.

Examples of what gets reviewed:

  • Does your contract actually cover late payments or scope creep?
  • Would your refund policy hold up if a client pushed back?
  • Are you missing IP or confidentiality language you didn't know you needed?
  • What's the one gap most likely to cost you money in the next 12 months?

We'll go through your document and tell you exactly what to change and why.

SCENARIOS LIKE...

A client stops responding to your emails

  • They owe you $2,000. 
  • You re-read your contract hoping you're covered. You aren't. There's no late payment clause, no collection process, nothing enforceable.
  • You hire a lawyer. $2,500 retainer. The invoice still isn't paid.

Total losses: $6,000+ and weeks of stress that didn't have to happen 😟

Inside the Academy, you'd have known exactly what to do before it even gets to this point.

One of your students requests a refund

  • You sell a $997 course. One student asks for a refund. Then two more, claiming "unclear terms." 
  • You panic—and issue $5,000+ in refunds you shouldn't have owed because your policy couldn't protect you.
  • A lawyer charges $1,200 to fix your refund terms after the fact. Self-doubt creeps in: Should I even launch again?

Total losses: $6,000+ and a dent in your reputation 😬

Inside the Academy, your refund terms are airtight before you ever hit publish.


You spot your content on someone else's site

  • Your sales copy, word for word. You feel violated and then frozen, afraid to act, worried you'll make things worse. Meanwhile, they’re still making money off of your words. 
  • Lawyer consult: $750. Cease-and-desist: $1,000+.
  • Your content is still circulating while you wait.

Total losses: $2,000+ and the confidence to share your ideas freely 😭

Inside the Academy, you'd know exactly how to shut it down — fast.

“As a physician launching a coaching business, I was paralyzed by the legal gray areas.  I finally have clear, coaching-specific guidance on my disclaimers, client agreements, and website language so I can serve clients confidently.”

How the Fine Print Academy Works

The Fine Print Academy is a membership that gets you access to real attorneys, real guidance, and real legal templates.

Unlimited Access to Legal Guidance from the AWB Firm

Weekly live calls and private written Q&A mean you're never guessing what to do when a real situation comes up. You ask. A real attorney answers within 2-3 business days. 

You get priority access– and yes, even questions NOT related to contract templates. Questions like “Should I register as an LLC or a PLLC?” “How do I protect my IP when hiring 1099 contractors?” And everything in between… No more guessing “is this a $50 question or a $500 question.”

Education & Training with a Searchable Library

You’ll immediately get access to a guided onboarding assessment that maps your individualized legal safety net and tells you exactly where to start implementing the most important protections quickly and in the right way.

Plus, each month, our attorneys train members on pertinent legal topics that affect online business, like refund policies, IP protection, AI compliance, and more (these are live each month, and the replays are added to your dashboard to revisit anytime).

Attorney Drafted Templates built for Online Businesses

Immediate access to attorney-drafted templates built for online business– including client agreements, website compliance, and terms and conditions– plus the exact steps to take to make sure they are implemented within the first 30 days of membership.


Plus, members receive a new attorney-drafted template available for download each month you are enrolled to cover you in situations like: collaborations, speaking engagements, event hosting, confidentiality/nondisclosures, brand sponsorships for content creators, and many more. You get to choose from a library of 30+ templates, so you’re always selecting the most relevant, “right-on-time” solution for your business.

Exclusive Access to Add-On Custom Legal Services

As your business grows, new legal needs will come up - trademark registrations, cease and desist letters, custom licensing agreements. These services are typically reserved for retainer clients or billed by the hour with no predictable cap.

FPA members get priority access to all of these projects from the AWB Firm at a flat, discounted rate you can actually plan around.

Monthly members: 10% off all a la carte services
Annual members: 20% off all a la carte services

No waitlist. No hourly billing surprises.

Think of it as having a legal team in your back pocket - one that already knows your business - ready to step in when you need more support.

"It's a no-brainer to have an attorney on hand to give advice without paying write-from-scratch legal fees. I'm telling all my business friends about it already!"

The AWB Firm Team Walking

Meet the Attorney behind your new legal safety net.

My name is Autumn Witt Boyd. I’m the founder of The AWB Firm, which is one of the only law firms in the US built specifically for online business owners.

I've been a business and IP lawyer for over 20 years, and our firm has served 600+ online businesses since opening in 2015.

Most people assume legal protection means intimidating language and fine print designed to scare clients. But I built this firm on a different philosophy entirely:

“Use honey, not a hammer.” 


I believe legal protection should feel like clarity, not intimidation. Which is why our contracts are written in plain English.

Our attorneys talk like humans, not lawyers.

Because protecting your business shouldn't mean scaring your customers away, we're creating win-win relationships from the very start.

Our firm's mission is to support impact-driven online business owners build a sustainable, profitable business.

And my personal mission is to use my skills and energy to help more women grow legally sound businesses, so they can smash the patriarchy and protect the kind of business that you’ve built...

...a business that gives you the economic freedom you can use to make an impact for good. 

"No more piecing together random templates and hoping they’re good enough, this program ensures you have what you need from a legal team for the faction of the cost."

— Timisha Tross, CEO Instructor at timishatutoring.com

"Autumn and her team are the go-to lawyers for online business for a reason...they have helped us not only with practical legal steps but also heart-centered advice."

— Amy Porterfield, New York Times bestselling author and $130MM online business owner

Our law firm supports some of the most recognizable names in the online business world, including Amy Porterfield and Jasmine Star.

Whether you're 1–2 years in and building toward your first $50k, or already scaling toward $300k and strengthening your legal protection as you grow, this membership was designed to support you.

legal coverage you can trust.

The Fine Print Academy™ is
designed to give you
confidence & protection you can trust - AI legal slop need not apply.

When something legal comes up, most business owners are left piecing together templates or asking AI for answers. AI can generate information, but it can't legally protect your business. And it certainly can't give you legal advice, review your specific situation, or protect you if something goes wrong…no matter how congenially it tells you it can.

You deserve legal support you can trust. The FPA support team is make up of practicing attorneys in the AWB Firm who are not only highly experienced but understand online business...and are real, live human beings.

Dangerous Myths in Online Business

🚨 "I don’t need real legal guidance until I hit seven figures."
Client disputes, refund requests, and IP issues can show up on client one, not client one thousand. They don't wait for a revenue milestone. Getting legally covered NOW allows you to move with confidence and protects you on the way to seven figures.  

🚨 "I'm not big enough for anyone to come after."
Visibility isn't what creates risk. Transactions do. Every signed contract, every payment plan, every piece of content  is a legal touchpoint, regardless of follower count.

🚨 "My cousin's neighbor is an attorney and offered to look over my client contract, so I’m good."
Generous offer, but probably not the right legal specialty. You wouldn’t ask a cardiologist to perform your knee surgery. Having a legal team that specializes in online small business will give you the assurance that not only do we get you and what you do, we’ve got the language and expertise to help you get the pieces in place to protect it. (True story: A friend told me her attorney had to watch YouTube videos ON HER DIME to learn about what a marketing funnel was. 👀 YIKES.)

A note on how this works: The Fine Print Academy is a membership, not a law firm engagement.


You get access to real attorneys, real templates, and real guidance, but the Academy does not create an attorney-client relationship with our firm. If you need individualized legal representation, our firm offers predictable, flat-fee a la carte legal services
available only to FPA members, at a discounted rate..

Moving Forward, You Have Two Choices:

White Knuckle It
without Fine Print Academy

Without Fine Print Academy, you’ll...

  • Continue making your legal decisions reactively and under pressure when a dispute lands in your inbox, or a contract turns out not to cover the situation you're actually in
  • Find, vet, and get a lawyer up to speed to work on the project while you’re under tremendous  pressure when a client threatens to sue or put you on blast. This process is not quick or easy– especially under duress.
  • Pay full retainer rates on someone else's timeline, chasing the peace of mind you could have had for a fraction of the cost, months earlier
  • Remain exposed with cobbled together contracts and unprotected IP 
  • Be left with few right-fit options for your type of business and your stage of business

Take Care of Business
with Fine Print Academy

With Fine Print Academy, you’ll...

  • Send contracts confidently, delivered in plain, professional language with an empathetic, human-centric approach to create win-win situations for both you and your clients.
  • Answer refund policy questions without guessing 
  • Stop wasting money on “panic solutions”
  • Add a new offers to your ecosystem knowing you’re legally covered working with clients in a new way
  • Operate with  the steadiness and confidence of knowing your business has real legal backing behind it, whenever you need to reach for it.
  • Know exactly where to turn for guidance as your business grows and new opportunities arise like licensing

Frequently Answered Questions

Stage of Business
What stage of business is the best fit for what The Fine Print Academy provides?
Most members are on track to generate between $30K and $500K a year. They are working with clients, publishing content, and accepting payments regularly. They're ready for a solid legal foundation to support them as they continue running their business for years to come.
What if I'm just starting out?
If you're still in the idea stage with no clients yet, this membership may be premature. You are still welcome to join, but our members who are newer to business and get the most out of FPA are typically at least one year in, and have had at least one client. If you're signing clients, taking payments, or publishing content, you're already exposed to legal risk - the only question is whether you're covered.

Still unsure if FPA is for you? Email us at [email protected] and we can point you in the right direction.
What if I'm making beyond $500K/year? Is The Fine Print Academy too basic for my needs?
It might be. If you're going to hit $500k this year, you may need more custom, 1:1 support. Contact our firm at [email protected] and we'll help you decide the best fit for your business.
Time Commitment and Implementation
What if I don't use the membership every month?
You don't use your car insurance every month either, but you'd never drive without it. Legal protection works the same way. Some months you'll be on every weekly call and setting up new contracts, customizing templates, and asking questions. Other months, you'll have the peace of mind that a lawyer is there if something comes up. Our members stay because having that safety net matters most in the months they didn't expect to need it.
I'm worried I won't have enough time to implement everything.
FPA does not take a lot of your time. It takes maybe 20 minutes to log in for the first time, take the quiz that tells you which contract template to start with first, download it, and get started completing it.

From there, you build your legal safety net one step at a time, at your own pace. There's no deadline to "finish", because legal protection isn't a project you complete. It's something that grows and evolves along with your business and something every well-run business dedicates a percentage of their budget to avoid much more expensive problems - just like paying a bookkeeper or CPA to file your taxes. With the Academy, legal becomes a predictable, budgetable investment, rather than a reactionary, unexpected and costly expense.
I can't always attend live calls. Will I still get value?
Yes - we get it, you’re booked and busy! Every call is recorded, and you can submit questions in advance or privately outside of calls. You'll always get answers from our attorneys within 2-3 business days, even if you can't attend live. Plus, the FPA member resources are searchable - Q&A calls and trainings are catalogued with time stamps and subject areas covered. So when a question pops up, even if the next call isn’t for a few days or you can’t attend, you have 24/7 access to FPA and its searchable archives.
Why is there a three month minimum? Can't I just try it out for a month?
Legal protection isn't something you can set up in 30 days and walk away from. The 3-month minimum gives us enough time to get your first contracts in place, answer your most pressing legal questions, and build the foundation of your legal safety net so you can actually experience the value before deciding whether to stay. Most members stay well beyond 3 months because by then, the protection feels essential. After month 3, you can cancel anytime with no friction. If you enroll with our annual plan, you'll continue to receive legal guidance for twelve months.
My Situation
I already have a contract I use. Do I need this?
If it wasn't drafted by an attorney who understands online business, or it hasn't been updated in over a year to match how you actually run things now, it may not protect you the way you think it does. Inside the Academy, you'll get up-to-date contract templates that our lawyers review and update regularly AND our custom feedback on how to make sure your contract fits the exact way you do business today.
What if I already work with an attorney?
Unless you have an attorney on retainer reviewing all of your legal issues and documents on a regular basis, the Fine Print Academy complements that relationship: you’ll get ongoing access to our attorneys and Q&A without extra billable hours, plus discounted rates when you do need custom legal work.
What if my team or VA handles contracts and onboarding?
Even better. Membership is per business, not per person, so your whole team gets unlimited access. They can attend live calls, submit questions, and use the resources, so you're not the bottleneck and your client experience stays smooth.
Will this work for me no matter where I live?
Our templates, resources, and attorney access are built to support online businesses across the U.S. For anything state-specific, like local employment law or filings, we'll always tell you upfront if you need a local attorney instead (and can often connect you with a trusted attorney in our network).
What does The Academy NOT cover?
Custom contract drafting or review, trademark and copyright filings, entity setup, and one-on-one calls are available as flat-fee, member-only add-ons if you ever need them. Since these are rare and not ongoing legal needs, we offer them to our members at a discount.

Other legal matters outside our practice areas, like family law, real estate, patents, wills and trusts, are not covered in the Academy membership. We stick to supporting you in our area of expertise.

Running a business over $500k annual revenue with a growing team?

You may need more custom, 1:1 support. Our law firm works directly with online business owners at that stage.
