We proudly represent one of the country’s largest and most diverse rosters of digital talent, influencers, content creators, gamers, podcasters, creative companies and startups. As trailblazers in digital media law, not only have we been involved in every type of deal in the digital media realm, we have also played a key role in developing what those deals look like. This includes brand and sponsorship deals, content creation (new media and “traditional”), merchandising agreements, option agreements, shopping agreements, licensing, podcast, management agreements, etc. Whether you’re an emerging creator still finding your audience, a seasoned content creator, or a creative company, we have the expertise to help you realize your unlimited growth potential.

WORK WITH US

Understanding the financial restrictions on entrepreneurs, start-ups, and promising new businesses, we excel at structuring deals and navigating investment and equity opportunities. We also can assist in business entity formations (LLCs, corporations, partnerships, etc.) and for existing businesses, we offer full services ranging from compliance advice, restructuring assistance, investment documents, corporate documents for shareholders, partnership agreements, operation and services agreements, and website terms and conditions. We can also revamp your outdated contracts and other business documents to reflect your company’s present-day operations and emerging social media outreach, and website terms and conditions.

WORK WITH US

As a creator, it all starts with an idea. We ensure that the expression of your idea, stories, work product, brands, designs, or otherwise are protected to the best of their ability. We are experienced in trademark, copyright, privacy, personality, publicity, and other intellectual property rights. We can also audit your intellectual property assets and advise on any missing protections.

WORK WITH US

The music industry presents unique legal challenges as domestic, and often international contract, intellectual property, and business issues need to be addressed in every deal. Musicians and music companies must also ensure that their work efforts are safeguarded in the fast-changing digital musical landscape. We draft and negotiate the full suite of music industry agreements on behalf of our clients, including recording, publishing, producer, distribution, licensing, live performance, and asset sale agreements. We also assist with the corporate organization of musical projects, whether by forming an entity or handling the preparation of an operating or partnership agreement. In the event of a dispute, we also assist with litigation matters to protect your rights in instances of breaches of contract and infringement claims. Our attorneys have represented music industry clients at all stages of their career, from independent singers playing at coffee shops to working directly with the major record labels.

We provide legal services at every stage of production from development and production, to post-production and distribution.
