Practice Areas Entertainment Law

The principals of Waterford Law represent clients throughout the entertainment industry. Waterford provides counsel to individuals and companies involved in all forms of media, including music, film and television.

Waterford’s entertainment business management practice forged its beginnings in the field of artist royalty accounting. Waterford’s managing director served as the royalty accounting manager for an international record company and learned the intricacy and often-complex nature of royalty computations.

This position gave him the opportunity to work with many artists, producers and other entertainment companies, which eventually led to him resigning from his position with the record label and forming his own business management practice, which has become one of the foundational elements of the Waterford Law Group, PLLC.

Waterford’s unique perspective on “penny rate” computations and the ability to render statement interpretations on reserves, discounts and types of sales, coupled with an extensive understanding of contract law, provides the client with a thorough review of complex entertainment contracts.

Currently Waterford represents entertainment clients including multi-platinum selling artists, New York Times Best Selling Authors and cutting edge digital distribution companies.
