WE HAVE A MANAGER , PA , AGENT , DO WE STILL NEED AN ENTERTAINMENT LAWYER IN NIGERIA ?


Creatives and entertainment business professionals often focus their efforts on getting representation through a manager , PA or agent as they believe that having a manager or agent can take the place of having an Entertainment lawyer in Nigeria .

The truth however is legal language and clauses can be quite tricky and there are some aspects of regulations in Nigeria pertaining to the entertainment industry that a manager , PA or agent cannot properly interpret or oversee . This is the duty of an entertainment lawyer and neither the PA , manager or agent have the legal expertise or experience of an entertainment lawyer in Nigeria to oversee pertinent legal dynamics in the entertainment industry of Nigeria .

WHY DO I NEED AN ENTERTAINMENT LAWYER IN NIGERIA ?

The scope of work of an entertainment lawyer in NIgeria is extensive, but some of their most common duties and reasons why you need an entertainment lawyer in Nigeria includes:

Negotiations
Protection of Intellectual Property
Contracts and Agreements
Legal Advise
Sponsorship and Funding
Networking
Litigation

1. NEGOTIATIONS

Negotiations constitutes an essential item for any progressive creative or entertainment business in Nigeria. It is inevitable that negotiations come during interactions with prospective investors, fans or brands.

The entertainment lawyer is experienced in negotiations as it is a basic skill of practice as a lawyer. Rather than advocate or negotiate deals that can make or mar your career or business all by yourself with little to no knowledge of complex industry terms and clauses that can be open to multiple interpretations, the entertainment lawyer in Nigeria who is an expert can broker the terms for a project or service, and make sure that you get fair compensation for your contributions and your rights are properly exploited.

Negotiations are made to favour you either by reducing the obligations and liabilities on you or increasing the compensation for such services you render. The job of the entertainment lawyer in Nigeria is to ensure your interest is protected and what benefits you is properly negotiated.

2. PROTECTION OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Intellectual property, or IP, is big business. Intellectual Property as the name implies is the “property” created or derived from usage of the creator’s “Intellect” i.e., a creation from the mind of the creator.

As such, such creation is said to the property of the creator.

Intellectual property rights can then be defined as the rights vested in a creator over his intellectual creation and protected by the law thus preventing others from exploiting the creation without the creator’s due authorization. Some of these rights include the right to reproduction, right to translation and adaptation, right to broadcast and making available to the public, right of public performance, etc.

The intellectual property rights inherent in literary works, musical works, artistic works, cinematograph films and other aspect of creative works must be properly documented and protected from unauthorized third parties.

Your catalogue, Your books, your movies, your beats, and your creative works all have inherent rights that must be protected.

The entertainment lawyer in Nigeria will utilize appropriate mechanisms in form of contractual documents, registrations, automation, litigation, and other recognized legal means to ensure you enjoy the rewards of your creative work and you are protected from undue exploitation.

The entertainment industry is set up in a way that necessitates protection of your intellectual property from those who may want to buy it, reproduce it, license it—or infringe upon it with unauthorized use. An entertainment lawyer in Nigeria will supervise and ensure that a client’s intellectual property is handled properly and protected when copyright or trademark issues arise.

The intellectual property rights of creatives and entertainment professionals can be protected by the entertainment lawyer in Nigeria via trademark, Copyright registration, Patent registration, industrial design registration, trade secrets, or any other means that is suitable to each peculiar case and is in the best interest of the clients.
