Legal Needs Within the Arts and Entertainment Industries
Much like other industries, creatives have concerns related to general issues such as business organization, hiring of employees, and taxes. However, unlike other industries, creatives have particularized needs that depend on the kinds of products and services they offer.
For example, most products and services developed by creative industries contain a key component of intellectual property. The creative output of these businesses centers on developing and distributing works of authorship, such as songs, movies, video games, and books. Protecting that intellectual property is at the core of maintaining a successful artistic business.
If you are an artist or run an entertainment organization, you deserve the benefit of expert legal counsel for artists to address these issues, as well as matters such as:
- Licensing agreements
- Art donation and loan agreements
- Contracts for the purchase and sale of works
- Donor contracts
- Entity creation and maintenance for business or non-profits
- Employment and commission matters
At EPGD Attorneys at Law, P.A., in partnership with Starving Artists, we are proud to provide comprehensive legal representation for all of these matters to our clients in the arts.
Benefits of Working With Qualified Arts and Entertainment Attorneys
There is a significant difference between legal counsel from attorneys who focus on traditional business and those who specialize in the arts. Qualified arts and entertainment lawyers like the associates at EPGD Attorneys at Law, P.A., have specialized knowledge regarding intellectual property law, employment law, and contracts. This experience gives them the skills to protect and exploit creative assets and others, such as name and likeness, to guarantee their clients the maximum return and rights to their works.
In addition, arts lawyers must keep abreast of new developments within these industries, as technology and new media continue to transform how we produce and consume creative content. The entertainment industry is constantly changing, and our attorneys pride themselves on remaining up-to-date on the most recent laws and precedents set in Florida and nationwide. We are always prepared to provide expert legal counsel that takes the current state of the industry into account.
