Media

Seyfarth Shaw represents companies involved in a broad range of entertainment and media enterprises, including film and television production, publishing, advertising, journalism, public relations, and event promotion and ticketing.

Our attorneys have considerable experience helping clients manage the full spectrum of media-related business concerns, including:

• intellectual property issues such as copyrights, trademarks and other proprietary information;
• labor and employment matters such as contracts, executive compensation, confidentiality, noncompete and nondisclosure agreements and union negotiations; and
• corporate, finance and securities issues associated with daily operations, forward-thinking transactions (such as mergers, acquisitions and divestitures) and long-term growth objectives.

We understand that business and media cycles can vary considerably and work with clients to resolve issues on their schedule, according to their needs. We help media companies balance regulatory and industry pressures and when disputes arise, resolve issues quickly and effectively in court, across the negotiating table or before government and administrative bodies.
