About

Legal infrastructure built for independent music.

GeeseTrace Intake is a legal intake and connection platform for independent artists, songwriters, producers, labels, publishers, and music rights holders. We help you document potential copyright issues, organize evidence, and connect with attorneys who understand the music industry.

Built for the independent industry

Not a label service. Not a lawyer directory. A guided, structured intake platform designed for independent rights holders who have historically lacked access to the legal infrastructure major labels rely on.

Created by an attorney

GeeseTrace Intake was designed by someone with practice experience in music, intellectual property, and rights work.

Not a law firm

We do not provide legal advice or representation. We help you organize your matter and connect you with attorneys who may be able to help.

Neutral on fees

Attorney fees are set solely between you and the attorney. GeeseTrace Intake does not set, negotiate, or receive attorney fees.

Our mission

Major labels have established legal infrastructure to help protect and enforce their music rights. Independent artists and music rights holders deserve access to legal infrastructure too. GeeseTrace Intake helps close that gap by giving independent rights holders a more accessible way to document potential legal issues, understand available pathways, and begin the process of seeking legal support.

Independent artists often have access to distribution, promotion, and artist-service platforms, but comparable legal infrastructure for protecting their rights has been missing. That is the gap GeeseTrace Intake exists to close.

What we do not do

· We are not a law firm and do not provide legal advice.
· Completing an intake does not create an attorney-client relationship.
· Submission does not guarantee attorney review, representation, or recovery.
· We do not set attorney fees or negotiate on your behalf.
