Law Hired

Media & Entertainment practice operations

Media & Entertainment software built around the dates, records and paperwork of the work

Entertainment deals are made of options, royalties and rights that revert. A missed option date can lose a property and a missed audit window can lose a recovery. The workspace tracks each term and the clocks they start.

Dates it keeps for you

Each of these is counted from a date your team types, placed in the matter calendar, and confirmed by the responsible attorney.

01

Option exercise dates

Each option’s window and notice requirements are tracked from the dates in the agreement.

02

Royalty audit windows

Each statement starts the period in which it can be audited, counted from its date.

03

Copyright termination

The windows for terminating a grant under sections 203 and 304 are counted from the grant or publication dates entered.

04

Defamation and anti-SLAPP

Limitation and early-motion dates are counted from publication.

What the matter holds

Typed records, not a narrative note: each fact is entered once and every calculation, form and document reads from it.

01

Deal terms and options

Parties, rights granted, territory, term and options as typed rows.

02

Royalty statements and audits

Each statement’s amounts, the audit performed and the variance.

03

Residuals

Payments due and received under guild or union agreements.

04

Clearances and E&O

Rights cleared, releases obtained and the insurance behind the production.

05

Production finance

Funding sources, the waterfall and the amounts recouped.

Prepared for you

Forms are the agency’s own PDF, filled from the record. Documents are prepared from the same rows for the attorney to edit.

What it does not do

  • Guild and union agreements are entered as typed terms; the platform does not know a collective agreement’s terms unless they are entered.
  • Whether a statement is correct is for the auditor; the platform records the variance.

How the legal content here is checked

This page describes the software; no attorney is named as its reviewer, so none is shown. Behind the media & entertainment workspace, each deadline rule, limitation period and legal figure is stored with its citation and is recorded as verified only once a named attorney has confirmed it, with that attorney's name and the date; showing that record beside every rule on screen is still in progress. The coverage page counts how many are verified, by practice area and state.

What you can hold us to

Law Hired is practice software, not a law firm or legal-advice service

Every date and figure is counted from what the firm enters and verified by the responsible attorney

Law that changes is reference data with its citation, checked by an attorney before it is relied on

Availability is described separately from production verification

Questions firms ask

Does it track option dates?

Each option has its window and notice requirement, and the date reaches the calendar before it passes.

Can it track royalty audit windows?

Each statement carries the period in which it can be audited, counted from its date.

Does it help with copyright termination?

It counts the termination window from the grant and publication dates you enter and tracks the notice. Eligibility is the attorney’s analysis.

Does Law Hired give media & entertainment legal advice?

No. Law Hired is practice software. It records, calculates and prepares from what the firm enters, and the responsible attorney verifies every date, figure and document before anyone relies on it.
