Entertainment law touches every part of a creative project—from intellectual property rights and talent agreements to cross-border visas and corporate structures. At D’Alessio Law, we help artists, producers, and entertainment companies protect their work, negotiate fair deals, and stay compliant in a fast-changing industry. Whether you’re launching a project or expanding your professional reach, our team is ready to support your legal needs in the entertainment sector.

Drafting and Negotiation of Contracts

In the entertainment industry, the foundation of success often lies in the strength of its contracts. From securing talent through performer agreements to finalizing distribution deals, each contract must be carefully crafted to protect interests and clarify terms. At D’Alessio Law, we provide clear, strategic guidance at every stage of the contracting process, whether you’re launching a new project, finalizing a distribution deal, or managing talent relationships.

We handle a wide range of entertainment contracts, including:

  • Talent Agreements: Define compensation, performance obligations, credit, and usage rights for actors, musicians, and on-screen talent.
  • Production Contracts: Cover crew hiring, equipment rentals, location releases, and other production logistics.
  • Distribution Deals: Structure agreements with networks, platforms, or studios to ensure your content reaches the intended audience.
  • Licensing Agreements: Secure rights to use copyrighted content, such as music, clips, or branded materials, in your projects.

Our goal is to ensure that every agreement is enforceable, clearly written, and aligned with your creative and business objectives, allowing you to move forward with confidence.

Intellectual Property in Entertainment

Intellectual property (IP) is the foundation of the entertainment industry. It defines ownership over creative content and enables artists, producers, and companies to protect, monetize, and control how their work is used.

At D’Alessio Law, we help clients secure and enforce their IP rights through services that include:

  • Copyright registration for original works such as music, film, scripts, and digital content
  • Trademark protection for brand names, logos, slogans, and other identifiers that distinguish your work
  • Licensing agreements that allow others to use your content while preserving your legal and financial control

We also assist with IP enforcement, which may involve issuing cease-and-desist letters, negotiating disputes, or pursuing legal action in the event of infringement. Our goal is to protect your intellectual property from unauthorized use and help you leverage its full value in the marketplace.

U.S. and Canadian Entertainment Visas

Navigating U.S. and Canadian entertainment visa requirements demands skilled legal support, especially for international artists and professionals working across borders. At D’Alessio Law, we assist touring musicians, film crews, production companies, and other creatives in securing the right visas to live and work in North America legally. 

Our team handles O-1B visas for individuals with extraordinary ability in the arts, as well as P-category visas for performers, entertainment groups, and culturally unique programs. We ensure that every application is strategically prepared, fully documented, and compliant with current immigration laws, making the path to performing, filming, or producing abroad as smooth as possible.
