Brandon Huffman, Founder, Odin Law and Media

Brandon is an attorney focused on representing technology and media clients in business, intellectual property, content clearance, privacy, commercial contracts, employment and internet regulatory matters. Why? Because of a passion for creativity and technology. Brandon is a so-so visual artist, a lousy programmer and a pretty-okay film editor, but he is a great lawyer. He keeps an old comic by Barbara Smaller that features a little boy in a cowboy outfit telling his father "Well if I can't be a cowboy, I'll be a lawyer for cowboys." The creative and innovative clients Brandon serves are his cowboys. Brandon volunteers as general counsel to the International Game Developers' Association, the largest trade organization focused on supporting individual game developers. In early 2017, he was awarded the IGDA's MVP award. When he is not working, Brandon spends time with his wife, kids and their pets. He also accompanies his wife on her pilgrimages to Walt Disney World, attends various digital media user groups and industry events, draws, paints and tinkers in the family garage. Oh, and sometimes there is time leftover to play a video game or two.
