This is the title of an interesting article by David Naylor and Andrew Jaworski, David and Andrew both work for Field Fisher Waterhouse, Field Fisher Waterhouse were one of the first Law Firms to have a presence in Second Life.

In this article, which is available on the Sweet & Maxwell Legal Hub, they discuss some of the "real world" challenges that can occur as a result of activities in Second Life, these include:

  • The protection of Intellectual Property
  • Consumer protection
  • Defamation
  • Employment issues

Unfortunately you need to be registered to read articles on the Legal Hub, but it is free to register.
