Entertainment Law

As an artist, you want to focus on creating. However, in an age where the internet, music streaming and other technological advances make it easier and easier to share things like music, photographs, artwork and writing, it also puts artists, musicians, writers and film makers at risk of having their work exploited, appropriated or outright stolen. There also those who promise to represent you and your work, and then leave you high and dry.
