Disputes are an unwelcome but inevitable part of doing business in the entertainment industry, where partnerships form quickly, projects move fast, and significant money often changes hands on a handshake and a term sheet. When conflicts arise, our firm moves decisively to protect your interests, your revenue, and your reputation.
We represent production companies, management firms, labels, studios, talent, and entrepreneurs in disputes involving partnership and joint venture breakdowns, profit participation and royalty disagreements, breach of fiduciary duty, ownership of creative works and companies, and conflicts among founders, investors, and shareholders. Our first priority is always a resolution that serves your business goals — often achieved through skilled negotiation before a lawsuit is ever filed. When litigation becomes necessary, we are fully prepared to pursue or defend your claims aggressively.
Every dispute is also a business decision. We give you a clear-eyed assessment of your position, your options, and the costs and benefits of each path forward, so you can resolve conflict on your terms.
