LFTC is often the first call for high-profile entertainment clients facing high stakes disputes. Clients turn to us for our unique approach to entertainment litigation, as we balance the need for aggressive tactics with an understanding that the entertainment industry, unlike many other business fields, is founded upon recurring relationships. We know how to manage the media and guide our clients through the process, avoiding litigation when possible and minimizing risks.
Our attorneys have handled disputes touching every aspect of the entertainment industry, representing large entertainment companies, talent agencies and management companies (both business and personal), individual writers, actors, producers, directors, agents and managers, in a broad range of disputes. Our wide-ranging experience includes such controversies as defamation law, celebrity rights of privacy, oral and written contractual claims, general business litigation, copyright and idea submission claims, invasion of privacy, manager and agent commissions, and trade secret litigation.
As a part of our Entertainment practice, LFTC represents clients throughout the music industry, including artists (composers, DJs, musicians), producers, record labels, music publishers.
