Legal Services

Outside General Counsel/Fractional Counsel
for Entertainment Businesses

I provide clear and simple guidance for video game companies, entertainment businesses, brands, talent, and creators at all levels of experience and success. I can provide legal support for things like: startup and formation; scaling your company for growth after a successful product release; building playbooks and negotiating high level licenses; supporting negotiations for strategic partnerships; counseling on matters like contract disputes and termination, disparagement and defamation, regulatory compliance, personality rights (e.g. right of publicity) and privacy rights, and other matters that customarily arise in any entertainment business.

Contract Systems Architecture

Future-proof contracts for new business models.

I simplify, draft, and negotiate the legal agreements that make creative innovation possible.
From game studios and content platforms to global IP owners, I help businesses bridge the gap between imagination and enforceability — building contracts that scale with technology, not against it.

What I deliver:

• Custom master service, publishing, and development agreements.

• Modular licensing templates for user-generated and AI-assisted content.

• Scalable contract libraries and governance systems for studios, SPVs, and platforms.

Every framework is designed to anticipate evolution — not chase it.

Strategic Licensing & Partnerships

High-value dealmaking for global IP and brand collaborations.

I structure and negotiate complex licensing and co-development agreements that balance creative freedom with commercial protection.
Whether you’re integrating global brands into digital worlds or adapting traditional IP for interactive platforms, I ensure clarity, compliance, and creative alignment.

Services include:

• IP and brand licensing negotiations.

• Franchise, publishing, and co-development partnerships.

• Cross-border distribution and collaboration deals.

Risk Translation & Business Model Advisory

Turning creative risk into legal clarity.

Innovation moves faster than regulation — my role is to make sure your contracts keep up.
I translate complex business models into clean, enforceable deal structures that minimize uncertainty and protect long-term value.

Focus areas:

• Legal risk mapping for new revenue models.

• Contract and deal structure audits.

• Ownership, monetization, and compliance frameworks.

Cross-Border Legal Consulting (SEA / APAC ↔ US / EU)

Local insight. Global standards.

As a U.S.-qualified foreign legal consultant, I advise SEA and APAC businesses partnering with U.S. and international companies.
I help local teams align their agreements with global IP and platform requirements — without losing cultural or operational nuance.

Advisory scope:

• Localization of U.S. and EU contract frameworks.

• Cross-border negotiation strategy and documentation.

• Legal and cultural translation between regional and Western business norms.
