Whether you are producers, investors, writers, directors, actors, or one of the many other industry players, we have the experience to help you bring your story to an audience near you.

DEVELOPMENT & RIGHTS
Who owns the copyright to the project? What are those “gaming” rights, anyway? Can you use that song title for your project? Do you even know anything ‽(⬅️ Check out that fancy interrobang.) Griffin Entertainment Law gets into the nitty-gritty so you can relax, confident knowing what you can and can’t do, own and don’t own. Griffin Entertainment Law hyper-detailed issue-spotting and problem resolution skillz will help you address IP issues early so you can focus on getting your project done.
STRATEGY & BUSINESS AFFAIRS
We’ve seen things, man – and you benefit from our experience. Griffin Entertainment Law gets that the media and entertainment field is a rich tapestry (ahem) of small businesses, giant goliath studios, and, well, little engines that could. We can leverage our vast aggregated experience to offer you support with business, legal, and financial strategies to plan the play and then play the plan.
FINANCING & CORPORATE
Like the infinite variety of superheroes in the vastness of the multiverse, no two projects are 100% alike. From multi-project deals to single-project financing… From pass-through LLCs to multi-investor corporate structuring… From secured bank lending to family-and-friend investments, Griffin Entertainment Law organizes it into neat and clear terms tailored to your project.
LICENSING & DISTRIBUTION
Griffin Entertainment Law’s strong in-house legal and business affairs know-how offers first-class advice on licensing and distribution. We’ve been on the side of the studio. We’ve been on the side of the producer. We’ve been on the side of the artist. We know how to find a common ground to foster a productive working relationship and get the project in front of an audience.
CLEARANCES, INSURANCE, AND DELIVERY
You should see our email inbox, it’s practically empty. No, really. That’s how organized we are about the details of your project. And you gotta have the details right, so you can get approved delivery. Cause without approved delivery, you don’t get your license fee, amirite? Let Griffin Entertainment Law know you want us to get all Marie Kondo up in your business, because it sure brings joy to us!
