I need a U.S.–licensed attorney who routinely handles entertainment, copyright, and broader IP matters to turn my term sheet for an original TV concept into a polished, enforceable collaboration agreement. The agreement must leave no doubt that I, as the creator, retain sole ownership of the underlying intellectual property—even though joint- or contribution-based structures are common.
Key points that have to be spelled out with precision:
• clear statement of sole IP ownership in my name
• detailed economic participation provisions (percentages, waterfall, audit rights) so revenue sharing is unambiguous
• creator and writer credits exactly as specified in the term sheet
• definitions of each party’s creative and business contributions
• exclusive pitching, shopping, and selling rights and the procedure for green-lighting offers
• protective language against any unauthorized use, sale, or assignment
• orderly exit clause describing what happens if someone withdraws from the project, including continuing rights and back-end protections
• framework for bringing future writers or collaborators aboard without diluting my IP
I will supply the term sheet, background emails, and comparable agreements for reference. Please respond with your flat-fee quote, a brief note on similar TV or film agreements you have drafted, and confirmation of your active U.S. bar license. The timeline is tight, so an estimated turnaround date is helpful.
