Entertainment Law
We are a natural for sports and entertainment clients. Passionate commitment, industry knowledge, hands-on experience – we share all these traits with our creative clients and complement them with a unique set of skills that enable our clients to exercise their talents while we take care of business.
Our entertainment law attorneys work with household names on a global scale – furthering your work and protecting your interests in an environment where old business models no longer cut it. From drafting and negotiating deals to evaluating entertainment assets, we liberate creative people and businesses to do what they do best.
Our attorneys leverage years of experience with a clear vision and the latest industry knowledge to secure the full value of creative output across all realms of sports and entertainment — including music, film, television, digital media, publishing, production, broadcasting and distribution. We also represent clients in matters related to asset and estate management, financing and project investment issues, as well as litigation and dispute resolution.
Entertainment and sports clients want to focus on creating, performing and producing. Our job is to clear your path by making sure you remain on firm legal and business footing every step of the way.
