As each entertainment client is different, their needs are also different, and Kozar Law Office, LLC provides specific plans tailored to your entertainment business needs. 

Entertainment law is a broad practice of law, encompassing many facets at both the State and Federal levels, including, but not limited to: trademarks; copyrights; business formation, development, and protection; and contract agreements and disputes. Proper forethought and early protective measures can significantly reduce costs and time involved in both litigation and transactional disputes.

Specific plans tailored to your entertainment business needs As each entertainment client is different, their needs are also different, and Kozar Law Office, LLC provides specialized plans and services for each of our clients. Whether you are a musician, band, artist, playwright, author, composer, songwriter, or business that features live performances or gallery displays, Kozar Law Office, LLC can fit your needs.

TRADEMARK
As an entertainer, you want your audience to be able to recognize your name, your logo, and your brand. Registering your trademark is one of the best ways to protect your interests. We can file your trademark application with the United States Patent & Trademark Office (USPTO) on your behalf. We can police and protect your trademark(s) to ensure that your rights are not being infringed upon.

COPYRIGHT
Creating a work of art, writing a story, and recording a song are hard enough – let our office explain how your works can be protected and how you can financially capitalize on those works.

BUSINESS FORMATION, DEVELOPMENT, AND PROTECTION
If you are thinking of starting a business, we can advise as to what type of business you should form, and can draft the proper documents. Whether you have been in business for years, or are just beginning, every business should have proper protections set in place for its owners, members, and/or shareholders. We can advise which agreement(s) will work best for your individual and business needs.

CONTRACT AGREEMENT AND DISPUTES
Don’t sign anything that sounds too good to be true; let us make sure that your interests are protected before you sign a contract. Whether you have been offered or are requesting a Non-Disclosure Agreement, Non-Solicitation Agreement, Recording or Performance Contract, Gallery Arrangement, or Licensing Agreement, allow our office to ensure that you are in the best position possible.

PATENTS (by affiliation)
Your property rights for your invention(s) can be secured through obtaining a patent. Obtaining a utility patent, a design patent, or a plant patent is complex; let us aid you in this process.
