Born and raised in Miami in a Cuban-Ecuadorian family, Spanish is her first language and she spent more than 15 years as a competitive dancer.

In 2022, she earned her Juris Doctorate from the University of Tennessee College of Law, where she was a member of the now Transactional Clinic after passing the Florida Bar, she returned to Miami where she was a personal injury attorney for a year before opening her own firm.
When she set out to become a lawyer, her goal was to be in-house counsel for a lifestyle company but during law school she discovered could combine her interests and create a career on her terms. She blogged about her law school experience and it was through blogging, that she discovered being an influencer combining her passion for social media and legal training.

ABOUT KAYLA MORAN LAW®
I started blogging in 2018. As a clinic student at the University of Tennessee College of Law, I landed a brand deal of my own, and that was my lightbulb moment. I realized how many creators didn’t understand how much the contracts they were signing shaped their businesses. In those early days, few people, if any, were in their corner who understood both the law and the industry.
By 2021, I knew I wanted to build a firm for this industry as it evolved. In 2023, just months after graduating, I publicly launched Kayla Moran Law.
The creator economy moves fast. Deals close in DMs (even though they probably shouldn’t), campaigns launch in days, and one lopsided licensing and usage clause can follow a creator for years.
This industry needs counsel that understands how it actually works: how managers structure their rosters and representation agreements, how brands negotiate, and what a creator’s business really depends on.
For me, it’s about more than being a lawyer. It’s about being a strategic business partner and advocate for talent and entrepreneurs as they navigate social media, influencer marketing, and the ever-evolving digital landscape.
Today, Kayla Moran Law works with talent managers, agents, creators, and businesses across the creator economy, on everything from brand partnership agreements and talent contracts to trademarks and copyright. That includes our flagship offering: serving as fractional chief legal officer for management companies, providing ongoing legal leadership without the cost of an in-house hire.
Where the Industry is Going and What You Can Expect
AI is finding its place in the Creator Economy, but no matter how far technology impacts the industry, there is no replacement for clear standards for client relations, payment terms, insurance and sensible regulation overseen by competent legal services.
Creator-first approach. Attorney-level standards.
That means plain-English guidance so you understand what you’re signing, positions informed by how deals in this industry actually work, and, for ongoing clients, monthly strategy calls and direct access to our team through Slack.
My team includes an Of Counsel along with law clerks, so we have the capacity to support management companies with full rosters, and someone’s available if a deal is moving fast.
Kayla Moran is licensed to practice law in Florida.
