Silverstein Legal

A boutique firm that names the adult web trade as its clients

Silverstein Legal is a law firm whose published address is 30150 Telegraph Road, Suite 444, Bingham Farms, MI 48025. It describes itself as a full-service boutique firm that practices in numerous areas of law, and says it is especially proud of its work in the internet and technology markets, where its clients run various types of websites and online businesses. The page heading presents it as a website attorney and website lawyer, and the footer brands the firm as Adult Attorney and Adult Lawyer. Its client list reaches the owners and operators of adult websites and the businesses that sell to them.

The firm's managing and founding member is Corey Silverstein. The home page says he has been dedicated to the study and practice of law for almost a decade and points to an About page for a fuller profile. The firm accepts clients of any size, saying it will address the legal needs of an individual, a small business or a large business, including international ones, with what it calls innovative and flexible methods. Its general practice list runs from business law, civil litigation, contracts and corporate law to creditor rights, dispute resolution, entertainment law, internet law, intellectual property, first amendment and media law.

Who the firm says it represents

The firm's "Who Do We Represent?" section is organized by the kind of business rather than by statute, and several entries sit in the adult web trade.

For website owners and operators, the firm says it represents paysites, freesites, affiliate programs, tube sites, cam sites, dating sites, search engines, novelty stores, blogs and online communities. For content producers, it says its attorneys have decades of experience representing producers and ensuring their intellectual property rights are protected, and that they are experienced in age verification and record keeping issues. For advertisement and traffic brokers, it says it represents some of the largest brokers in the online community, and that these clients constantly deal with complex technology related contracts and transactions that call for both technical and legal skill.

Further groups are the vendors a site owner buys from. The firm says it represents internet service providers, meaning individuals and businesses that sell or lease internet hosting, collocation, bandwidth, servers and other technology. For payment processors, it says its lawyers understand the legal complexities of the payment processing industry and have substantial experience representing merchants, merchant account holders, third party billing services, payment gateways and alternative payment processors.

The same section lists domainers, where the firm says it represents some of the most successful domainers in the world, has handled the sale and purchase of multi-million dollar domain transactions and assists with domain name disputes. Social media management agencies get compliance work on influencer partnerships and user-generated content. Criminal defendants are listed too: the firm says that for the past decade it has defended clients investigated or charged with white collar and blue collar offenses. Its general description of internet law clients names internet service providers, website operators, programmers, software developers, artists and photographers or videographers.

What it handles for a site operator

The first item in the services menu is 18 U.S. Code §2257 and 28 C.F.R. 75, labeled record keeping requirements. Alongside it sit the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), copyright law, intellectual property, trademark law and trade secrets, plus obscenity and content evaluation, the Communications Decency Act, website agreements and disclaimers, internet privacy, data breach and security, spam law, FTC compliance and defense, first amendment, cryptocurrency, gaming law, contracts, domain name disputes and commercial litigation.

The firm's description of its internet work adds detail. It says its lawyers regularly assist clients with regulatory compliance, including CAN-SPAM, various state spam laws and FTC compliance, along with online marketing, content evaluation, social media policies, first amendment issues, censorship, intellectual property issues, the DMCA, data theft, privacy issues including privacy policies, licensing of content, software and hardware, record keeping, website sales, advertising law, domain disputes including cybersquatting and UDRP actions, and data security. For an adult operator that list maps onto the paper side of running a site: the records, the terms and privacy documents, takedowns, content review and the sale of the site itself.

Published terms

The firm does not publish a fee schedule, retainer terms or hourly rates. What the page does state is how the firm takes payment: VISA, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, PayPal, Paxum, checks, money orders, ACH and wire transfers.

The page carries a disclaimer that the information on the site is for general information only, that nothing on it should be taken as legal advice for any individual case, and that viewing it does not create an attorney-client relationship. It does not name individual adult clients or case outcomes.

Getting started

The route in is a conversation. The page invites visitors to speak with someone at the firm and offers a published phone number, a fax number, an email link and a contact form asking for a name, email, phone and a message. It describes an approach it calls prompt and aggressive representation and says its office can get clients the answers they need, as efficiently as possible.

The firm in the industry

The firm's news feed shows it at industry events and writing on current regulation. A post dated July 29, 2025 announces that Corey Silverstein would attend and present at TES Prague 2025, which the post places in Prague, Czech Republic, from September 11th through September 14th at the Vienna House by Wyndham Diplomat Prague. A post dated July 9, 2025 reports that on July 8, 2025 the Eighth Circuit vacated the FTC's click-to-cancel rule, formally the Rule Concerning Subscriptions and Other Negative Option Plans, and says the fight is not over for negative option compliance. A post dated April 29, 2025 covers the TAKE IT DOWN Act, S. 146, which the post says passed the House on April 28, 2025 after unanimous Senate approval in February, and which creates new criminal offenses and platform takedown obligations for intimate images published without consent, including deepfakes.

Who it suits

Silverstein Legal fits a US-based or US-facing operator who wants one firm for the legal side of an adult site: a tube or paysite that needs 2257 record keeping help, a cam or dating operator that needs terms and privacy documents, a producer protecting its intellectual property, an affiliate program or traffic broker with technology contracts, a domain owner buying or selling, or a business that sells hosting or payment services to the trade. It also fits operators whose problems cross into advertising law, spam law, subscription rules or the DMCA.

The caveats are straightforward. Pricing is by inquiry, and the menu covers areas well outside the adult trade, such as drunk driving defense and probate contests. The strength is the match between the client list and the trade: paysites, tube sites, cam sites, affiliate programs, traffic brokers, hosts and payment processors are all named as clients on one page, with 2257 record keeping first on the services menu.
