Newport Beach Video Game Lawyers and Video Game Law

The last two decades have seen the video game industry expand at a rapid pace. Where there once was a landscape of only large publishers and developers, the recent markets such as app stores for smartphones, Xbox Live Arcade, and Steam for the PC and Mac have provided opportunities for a flourishing, independent game market.

Whether a creative or business talent, it is important in the ever-changing industry to have proper protection for your work and proper guidance for your business model. AV-rated* attorney L. Scott Karlin, along with Michael J. Karlin and David E. Karlin, understand the business and intellectual property challenges you may be facing, and are prepared to help you.

The Karlin Law Firm handles all video game law matters including:

  • Copyright registration and litigation
  • Trademark registration and litigation
  • Business formation (corporations and limited liability company (LLC))
  • Licensing and distribution deals
  • Music licensing deals
  • Employment agreements
  • Property acquisitions
  • Misappropriation of ideas

Our skilled lawyers at The Karlin Law Firm can assist you with determining ways in which to best protect your work, including programming, coding and trade secrets.
