Media & Entertainment

Hardwicke has specialist knowledge and strength in a wide variety of media and entertainment matters and act for a wide range of performers, publishers, managers, agents, journalists and other media organisations such as film, television and record companies.

Our barristers act and advise both claimants and defendants in all types of case with a media element, including: confidentiality, copyright, data protection, privacy, and defamation. We also deal with performers’ rights, moral rights and the protection or exploitation of celebrity image.

The overlap with Hardwicke’s Intellectual Property team allows us to offer a full service to media clients and we are able to advise on the more technical aspects of media law such as the regulation of media bodies.

We also understand that Media disputes often require urgent action and Hardwicke is well placed to put teams in place to deal with emergency applications such as injunctions and disclosure orders.

Our barristers are also well placed to advise in relation to non-contentious issues such as publishing agreements, recording contracts, management agreements, licensing and merchandising agreements.

If you would like more information on how Hardwicke could help with your media and entertainment issues, please call our friendly and professional practice managers on 020 7242 2523 or e-mail enquiries@hardwicke.co.uk.
