Entertainment & IP Litigation

Overview

Today’s entertainment universe is constantly expanding — and increasingly borderless, social, high-tech and high-speed. As industry players old and new innovate their content offerings to compete for global audiences, they face greater risks to their creative assets and business interests.

Loeb & Loeb’s work on high-profile entertainment litigation matters of industrywide significance has defined the leading edge for more than a century. And we continue to break new ground for our clients in today’s rapidly evolving entertainment landscape.

Our Entertainment and IP litigators offer the highest caliber of legal knowledge in intellectual property law, trial-ready advocacy, and deep experience in motion pictures, music, television, theater, publishing, advertising and new media. It’s this unmatched blend of legal skill and industry-focused insight that our media and entertainment clients rely on to protect their creative works and to solve their complex commercial challenges.

Our litigators represent media, entertainment and content companies of all types — major motion picture studios, television networks and production companies, music publishers and record labels, among others — as well as individual artists and creators.

We handle all aspects of intellectual property dispute resolution, including prosecuting and defending claims involving copyright infringement, trademark and trade dress infringement, idea submission, piracy, false advertising, unfair competition, and individual rights of privacy and publicity.

We litigate profit participation, licensing, royalty, financing and other complex contractual disputes in state, federal and appellate courts across the country, and in arbitration tribunals, including IFTA (Independent Film & Television Alliance) arbitrations involving foreign distributors.

In an industry that is experiencing rapid change in content delivery and consumption, we are at the forefront of counseling on and litigating cases involving the latest technological developments. And while many of our clients are media giants that create and own America’s most important cultural exports, we also work with emerging companies developing technological innovations that promise to alter the face of global media and entertainment.

Our lawyers serve as litigators and advisers for our media, entertainment and content clients, providing smart, efficient and business-focused counsel. We’re as proud of our ability to resolve matters for our clients outside of litigation as we are of our exceptional record of courtroom successes.
