Advertising and Brand Protection

Whether your company’s goal is to manage and protect its brands and IP rights or to successfully resolve an FTC investigation, litigation, or NAD challenge (or avoid a dispute altogether), our attorneys can help. Prominent brands turn to our team to resolve their most challenging disputes, advise them on regulatory risks, and to help structure significant advertising matters and transactions.

Clients rely on us to apply our industry know-how and proven experience to their advertising campaigns, brand content production, and media investments. We advise our clients at every stage of the advertising production and distribution life cycle, including campaign ideation, talent negotiation, including SAG/AFTRA, content clearance and licensing, and media strategy and placement. We understand the cutting-edge issues facing marketers today, including native advertising, real-time marketing, programmatic, sponsored, and co-produced content, use of consumer reviews, and testimonials and endorsements. We also negotiate sponsorship, promotion and naming rights deals with sports leagues and teams, sanctioning bodies, publishers, athletes, entertainment properties, music artists, and celebrities.

Armed with deep industry knowledge and a tested awareness of the need for practical advice, our driving goal every day is to add real value and help reduce risks where brands are investing their marketing and media dollars.
