Why U.S. Legal Support Is Essential for Creative and Digital Industries
The U.S. market represents a huge commercial opportunity—but it’s also a highly regulated and litigious environment. Media, entertainment, and technology companies must navigate a range of challenges.
Including:
- Rights ownership and clearance
- Contract negotiation with U.S.-based parties
- Complex Intellectual Property (IP) frameworks, differing from UK and EU systems
- Cross-border structuring for joint ventures or co-productions
- Regulatory scrutiny in advertising, broadcasting, and data handling
- Enforcement of IP, licensing and other rights in a large, decentralised legal system
Abrams Law ensures your U.S. operations and assets are structured, protected, and positioned for sustainable success.
