As the digital revolution rapidly transforms society it's crucial for legal practitioners to stay ahead of these fundamental changes.

Addressing the key challenges faced by businesses, policymakers and individuals in the metaverse, this practitioner's guide provides a holistic approach to the idea of the metaverse, the rule of law, its regulation, and governance.

It takes key 'real life' legal issues such as buying and selling property, family law, consumer rights, business law, disputes, estate planning and criminal law, and explains how these should be addressed in the metaverse now, as well as looking at its future evolution, regulation and governance.

With opinions and contributions from a range of specialist lawyers and technologists, topics covered include: virtual property rights, NFT, DAO, intellectual property, privacy, consumer protection, sports and entertainment law, digital currency, and digital identity. Protection from harm, issues with conflict of laws and jurisdiction and enforcement of rights are also examined.

Offering practical considerations and insights into best practice, this title ensures that legal practitioners are best placed to advise clients facing challenges or seeking advice on conduct and opportunities within the metaverse.

This title is included in Bloomsbury Professional's Cyber Law online service.
