Who we represent

Legacy Arts Law specializes in transactional entertainment law, guiding both individuals and production companies through the dynamic and ever-evolving worlds of scripted and unscripted film, television, publishing, music, stage, branding, gaming, intellectual property, licensing, and transmedia.

We represent a spectrum of entertainment professionals, from screenwriters, actors, directors, authors, music artists, and producers to rising stars and seasoned rights holders. We also represent production companies to create a synergy at each stage of production. Our network extends to distribution connections, along with key players in the various industries.  

We stay on top of the industry trends and help our clients strategize and implement the best options available for each project.

    Entertainers, artists, and content creators are unique in that their estate contains intellectual property, rights of publicity, digital replicas, and copyrights that can benefit their heirs for many years.
