Entertainment

Our Entertainment practice supports clients across film, television, music, and digital media. Our lawyers bring industry-specific knowledge to transactions, financing, and contractual arrangements, helping creative enterprises protect their rights and maximize opportunities.

We understand the fast-changing nature of the entertainment sector and deliver advice that balances innovation, protection, and commercial viability.

At the core of Ontario's vibrant entertainment landscape—from Toronto's status as a global production hub to the province's growing music, gaming, and digital content scenes—our team provides seamless guidance through every phase of a project or business. What truly distinguishes our practice is our in-house entertainment consultants, seasoned industry veterans with decades of hands-on experience as a studio executive, label manager, and digital platform strategist. Working side by side with our lawyers, our professionals bring real-world insight into how deals are structured, how content is valued, and how creative assets move through the marketplace.

We advise on the full spectrum of transactions that reshape the industry. Whether it's a film or TV production company being acquired by a larger studio, a music catalog sale to a private equity fund or streaming platform, a gaming studio joining a global publisher, or a digital content network consolidating with a media conglomerate, we structure deals that preserve creative control while maximizing value. Our team conducts thorough due diligence on intellectual property chains of title, royalty streams, guild obligations, and tax credit receivables—ensuring no value is left on the table.
