Our practice covers major sectors of business transactions and the media industry, focusing on multimedia, television, broadcasting, internet and entertainmnent. Additionally,
we have developed a niche representing copyright holders internationally
and television program suppliers worldwide with respect to filing
claims and negotiating copyright royalty settlements for the retransmission
of clients' television programming. We frequently counsel artists,
composers, and businesses with respect to organizational, employment,
litigation and transactional matters.
In all matters, we assist clients with the full array of necessary
services, including the negotiation of contracts (employment, settlement,
leases, licensing, distribution, purchase and sale), and the preparation
and prosecution of applications and registrations before the FCC,
the Copyright Office, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, U.S. Patent
& Trademark Office, performing rights organizations, international
copyright collectives, and state regulatory agencies. We also provide
advice concerning compliance with applicable international, federal
and state administrative rules and policies, and provide counseling
with respect to clearances needed from the Copyright Office, FCC,
U.S. Customs, the Patent & Trademark Office, or the Department
of Justice. When necessary, we are assisted by other attorneys or
accountants with expertise in tax, securities, and related disciplines.
The common principles underlying all services of our practice are
an attention to detail, conscientious, responsive personal service and a sensitivity
to the practical needs of clients who produce media content in an
ever-changing legal environment. |
