  • YLS Creative Arts/Video Game Law Committee (03/06/26)

    THE SEX TALK: A History of Video Game Censorship (IL MCLE credit for live webcast only)

    Topic: THE SEX TALK: A History of Video Game Censorship 

    Description:     The naughty bits of video games have generated criticism, controversy, and calls for censorship for decades. Censorship efforts have historically been unsuccessful in dictating taste and restricting free expression in this evolving medium. However, this year lobbyists successfully pressured popular game platforms like Steam and Itch.io to delist thousands of mature games by leveraging the terms and service policies of their payment processors. Was this a victory for values or a dangerous departure? In this presentation and QA, game industry attorney 

    Ross A. Hersemann will review the history of censorship efforts in the video game industry and highlight private and public policy trends that affect developers and consumers of mature games today.

    Speaker: Ross A. Hersemann is the Founder of Loading Law, a Chicago-based law practice, and provides legal counsel to creators and creative professionals. Ross is also the Organizer of the Chicago Video Game Law Summit and an Adjunct Professor of Video Game Law at DePaul University. He speaks frequently on hot topics in law and technology. Ross also serves as the Chair of IGDA Chicago, Chair of the CBA YLS Creative Arts Committee, and Associate Board member for Lawyers for the Creative Arts.

  • Solo/Small Firm Practitioners Committee (03/03/26)

    Codify Your Signature System: The competitive edge smaller firms use to stand out in crowded markets (IL MCLE credit for live webcast only)

    Topic: Codify Your Signature System: The competitive edge smaller firms use to stand out in crowded markets 

    Speaker: Marcel Krawczyk, Founding President, Little Jack

    Description: Most small firms struggle because they're trying to grow without the foundational clarity that makes growth actually work. Marketing feels scattered. Sales feels inconsistent. Delegation keeps failing. It's easy to lower your fees, hire another vendor, or pour money into ads without knowing what's actually driving results… and still feel stuck. In this session, you'll learn about aligning your message, sales process and visibility so everything works together. When a firm has this codified, vendors execute better, content compounds, consults convert more consistently, and growth stops depending on the founder to drive every result. If you've ever felt burned by a vendor who didn't deliver, stuck in a cycle of fragmented growth efforts, or unsure what parts of your business you can actually delegate without losing control, this workshop was built for you.
