The budding film industry in Georgia alone is making a financial impact worth billions of dollars for the state. As more and more production companies come to Georgia for work, the more entertainment law can pose a complication, or entertainment law violations can trigger a lawsuit. If you work within the entertainment industry of Georgia, make certain you are well-versed with entertainment law by teaming up with me, North Georgia Attorney Andrew J. Richman.
For years, I have been managing high-stakes cases for clients with a history of remarkable successes. I am ready to dedicate my experience and skills to your entertainment law case. Whether you are a business owner, executive, or individual involved with the entertainment industry of Georgia, I can provide the legal guidance and counsel you need.
All corners of the entertainment industry, from movies to music to television, depend on entertainment law behind the scenes to keep things running and in order. With my extensive knowledge of the inner workings of the entertainment industry, I can help you make certain your career or company is not derailed by a legal oversight or violation. If you have already been accused of an entertainment law violation, then I can come to your side for representation during negotiations or litigation.
Entertainment law concerns often stem from one of four topics:
Contract law: The entertainment industry is rife with various professional contracts. My law firm can help you create new contracts, review preexisting contracts, or challenge an invalid contract.
Labor law: It takes thousands of employees and workers to complete the average filming project. Let me review or draft your employment contracts to avoid potential labor law violations. Individual professionals, like actors, musicians, and other celebrities, should also use my labor law services, as they are often vulnerable to manipulative employment tactics due to the uniqueness of their careers.
Intellectual property: Some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry have grown their careers by bringing something “to the table” that no one else can, like a talent or a vision. This makes intellectual property disputes and concerns the center of many entertainment law cases.
Land use: Filming movies and television series outside of a private studio can be a tricky proposition if your production company is now well-versed in Georgia’s land use laws. You can depend on me for counsel and advocacy that protects your best interests.
