Music
We protect, represent and license all forms of music for recording contracts, and as content for entertainment projects from Recording, TV, film, video, DVD and Internet, to toys, online delivery and new media uses. We have helped clients take advantage of their new and "legacy" music to keep catalogs producing income and help increase their value. If you are a writer, musician, band, studio, producer or play any role in the music industry, we can help you through our extensive networks of contacts in New York, Hollywood and internationally. Those who inherit music catalogs generally do not know their value; we can provide the expertise to maximize the value of these properties. A general rule is, "If it can't be cleared, don't use it."
Film & Television
We represent film investors, directors, Oscar-winning animators and other creative people in this complex industry. We are at the cutting edge of entertainment's migration to the Internet. Beverly Green, a Martindale Hubble AV-rated and renowned music and film attorney, has negotiated and continues
to negotiate the best deals possible for her clients throughout the film industry. Clearance of rights is a crucial part of this practice.
We further our clients' business worldwide through contacts made practicing in entertainment since 1980. Our experience can help you avoid issues later in a promising career.
Mainly involved in the advertising and TV News portions of the television industry, we represent news personalities and help them obtain the best possible deals for their specialties on local news stations. We also have helped place music on many TV programs, protected the rights of our clients in pilots and programs, including documentaries, and protect rights of publicity in the names of TV personalities.

Art & Publishing
Book publishing can be a very tenuous economic process and it involves clearance of rights, as well as defense, prosecution, and protection of Copyright. We can help at all stages of creative activity for games, books and art works. Our expertise includes representing major and world famous artists, authors and book publishers. E-books and the internet present constant challenges, and we have helped authors protect rights to their works from unauthorized uses and protect their good names from being exploited.
Right of Publicity
The Right of Publicity is different from the Right to Privacy. Here we help famous and not-so-famous people maintain their right to use and license for compensation their names, voices, and likenesses, signatures, and sound-alike and look-alike features. This little-known creature of state law in many states and nations can be used as a sword and a shield to prevent unauthorized uses of a person's image and name, as well as to protect those rights for the use of their heirs.
