Entertainment Business Law Services in Long Island

Entertainment Company Formation

We form LLCs, corporations, and other entities for Long Island entertainment businesses including production companies, record labels, talent management firms, content studios, and creative agencies. Entity selection for entertainment businesses must account for liability exposure, tax treatment, intellectual property ownership, and the relationships between founders, investors, and talent.

Operating Agreements and Partnership Structures

We draft operating agreements for Long Island entertainment businesses that address profit distribution, management authority, intellectual property ownership, departure provisions, and the unique governance challenges that arise when creative professionals share ownership of a business. Partnership structures in entertainment require careful attention to the allocation of creative control and financial returns.

Joint Ventures and Co-Productions

We structure joint ventures for Long Island entertainment businesses pursuing co-productions, co-publishing arrangements, label partnerships, and collaborative content projects. Joint venture agreements define each party's contributions, ownership stakes, revenue splits, creative authority, and exit mechanisms.

Entertainment Business Contracts

We draft and negotiate business-to-business contracts for Long Island entertainment companies including distribution agreements, licensing deals, service agreements, vendor contracts, and strategic partnerships. These contracts must account for the intellectual property and revenue-sharing provisions that distinguish entertainment business relationships from general commercial transactions.

Corporate Governance and Compliance

We advise Long Island entertainment businesses on corporate governance, board management, regulatory compliance, annual filings, and the operational legal requirements that apply to entertainment companies operating in New York. Proper governance protects business owners and positions companies for investment, acquisition, or strategic partnerships.
