Film, Television, and Media Lawyers in Texas
Legal representation for creatives, producers, and studios when the stakes are high.
Film and television projects move fast, involve many players, and leave little room for legal missteps. One unclear clause or breached promise can derail months (or years) of work. When disputes arise, they often hit hard and publicly.
At Potts Law Firm, our film and television lawyers represent producers, talent, investors, and production companies facing contract disputes and rights conflicts. We step in when negotiations break down or financial interests are at risk, and we work to protect what you’ve built.
When Film, Television, and Media Agreements Create Legal Risk
Film and television agreements are rarely simple, and the consequences of getting them wrong can be costly.
Contracts Are High-Risk
Production contracts and media agreements often involve layered obligations, backend compensation, and strict timelines. When disputes arise, a Texas film and television lawyer helps clarify rights and enforce what was promised.
Money Moves Fast
From deferred compensation to profit participation, payment structures can become points of conflict. Legal guidance helps address underpayment, withheld funds, or disputed accounting.
Rights and Ownership Matter
Creative control, distribution rights, and intellectual property ownership can define the future of a project. A lawyer steps in when those rights are challenged or misused.
Disputes Can Go Public
Film and television conflicts often unfold under public scrutiny. Legal representation helps manage disputes with discretion while protecting your professional reputation.
