Our award-winning Media and Entertainment Litigation team has extensive experience representing virtually all of the major US newspapers, broadcasters, Hollywood studios and media companies in entertainment, First Amendment/media and intellectual property disputes, including collective defamation, privacy and newsgathering litigation, breach of contract, violation of licensing agreement, production issues and royalty accounting practices. We also counsel major news and media clients on all aspects of publishing, advertising and marketing law.
Our team has successfully defended major privacy class action litigations under the federal Video Privacy Protection Act (VPPA). Our success has earned Dentons a national reputation as a go-to defense firm in class actions brought under the VPPA and VRPA (Video Rental Privacy Act).
In the entertainment production space, as a result of our early-acquired experience in reality TV production, we have been called upon to create contract templates and what has come to be known as the "bible" of production guidelines, and regularly advise on personal privacy and issues.
The growth of technology is constantly changing the definition of media and communications. We helped shape the law surrounding Freedom of Information Act requests seeking text messages, emails and other electronic documents—an uncharted territory in an area of communication law where there is limited case law on whether electronic communications qualify as public records.
