Entertainment Law Services for Brooklyn Clients

Contract Negotiation and Review

Brooklyn artists and creators across music, film, visual arts, and digital media negotiate contracts that determine their income, creative control, and career trajectory. We review and negotiate recording contracts, management agreements, publishing deals, licensing agreements, distribution contracts, and production agreements. Our goal is to ensure you understand every term before you sign and that the deal reflects your value.

Music Law

Music industry contracts involve complex issues around publishing rights, master recordings, royalty structures, synchronization licenses, and distribution. Brooklyn artists and creators across music, film, visual arts, and digital media need counsel who understands these structures. We handle recording agreements, producer contracts, co-writing splits, sync licensing, and disputes over music rights and royalties.

Film, Television, and Production

Production projects require contracts with talent, crew, locations, distributors, and financiers. We draft and review production agreements, talent agreements, location releases, distribution deals, and financing documents. Brooklyn artists and creators across music, film, visual arts, and digital media working in film and television benefit from counsel who understands production workflows and industry standards.

Intellectual Property Protection

Creative work has value only when properly protected. We handle copyright registration, trademark filing for entertainment brands, and enforcement against unauthorized use. Brooklyn artists and creators across music, film, visual arts, and digital media should register their work with the U.S. Copyright Office and consider trademark protection for brand names, logos, and stage names used in commerce.

Influencer and Brand Partnerships

Content creators and influencers negotiate brand deals, sponsorship agreements, and partnership contracts that involve deliverables, usage rights, exclusivity, compensation, and FTC compliance. We review and negotiate these agreements to protect your creative freedom and ensure you are fairly compensated for your work and audience.

Entertainment Business Formation

Brooklyn artists and creators across music, film, visual arts, and digital media who form production companies, record labels, publishing entities, or creative agencies need proper business structures. We handle LLC and corporation formation, operating agreements, partnership structures, and joint venture agreements for entertainment businesses. The right structure protects your personal assets and positions the business for growth.

What Brooklyn Entertainers and Creators Should Know

Brooklyn's creative economy has grown significantly, with the borough now home to recording studios, production companies, creative agencies, and a large community of independent artists. The accessibility of digital distribution and social media has made it possible for Brooklyn creators to build audiences without traditional industry gatekeepers, but this independence also means navigating contracts, rights, and business decisions without the institutional support that major labels and studios once provided.

Brooklyn musicians and producers should understand the difference between publishing rights and master recording rights, as these two revenue streams are governed by separate contracts and often owned by different parties. Signing away publishing rights without understanding their long-term value is one of the most common and costly mistakes in the music industry.

Content creators based in Brooklyn should review brand partnership agreements carefully. Usage rights, exclusivity periods, and content ownership terms can significantly limit your future opportunities if not properly negotiated.
