Entertainment Law
Entertainment Law is about people: solving real problems and meeting the needs of genuine people creating things in music, film, publishing, the media and the world.
Focus on what you do best, we've got your back.
Ham Law finds solutions not obstacles: what to do and what not to do—and why. We know contracts, copyrights, ownership rights, and trade secrets; and we have four decades experience solving real world problems that extend far beyond the stage.
