Foster Pepper’s Media, Entertainment and Games attorneys have extensive experience representing clients across these dynamic industries.

Attorneys represent production companies, postproduction studios, actors, writers, musicians, directors, and corporations related in some of their most critical entertainment matters. They have strong working relationships with some of the world’s top entertainment companies, including NBC/Universal, Summit Entertainment, Paramount Pictures, Weinstein Company, RKO Pictures, Lionsgate, IPE Films, Morgan Creek Productions, and several top agencies. From antipiracy enforcement and network negotiations to employment issues and entertainment marketing, Foster Pepper attorneys help clients navigate this complex, multitiered industry to achieve their desired results.

Foster Pepper attorneys draft and negotiate significant film distribution agreements, talent agreements, director agreements, crew contracts, production agreements, network agreements, television contracts, endorsement agreements, music licensing and assignment agreements, agency contracts, and literary agreements. We have experience creating securities and tax compliance documents for entertainment companies, and have helped ensure that each company’s employment and labor agreements apply with relevant state and federal law. We also regularly educate other lawyers, corporations, and artists on the critical components of brand integration, product placement, and merchandising agreements.
