New York Entertainment Lawyer John J. Tormey
III - John J. Tormey III, PLLC
My name is John J. Tormey III. I am a New York lawyer, also admitted
to practice in California and the District of Columbia. I have a general
commercial law practice, with a focus on entertainment,
art, media, intellectual property (copyright
and trademark), limited
liability company law, and music A&R
(Artist & Repertoire) matters. Active
matters for my New York law practice include film;
music; television; publishing;
new business start-ups (these days oft-characterized by the creation
and filing of a limited liability company and the drafting of an LLC
operating agreement); life-story rights and other rights
matters; other contract drafting and negotiation; Internet and computer
affairs; and other transactional, employment,
and corporate work. As a music lawyer, film lawyer, television lawyer,
and entertainment attorney
generally, I also provide legal services to assist
artists and others in their endeavors to submit and place their
material with professional entertainment, publishing,
and media industry recipients - including film, music, and television
projects. I formerly served as Counsel to The Walt Disney Company, and
Senior Counsel and Senior Litigation Counsel to Miramax Films. My experience
includes music law, motion pictures, production counsel, life-story
rights, television, intellectual property (copyright and trademark),
art, radio, animation, merchandising, licensing, publishing, advertising,
marketing and publicity, casting, photography, modeling, interactive
media, and wills and estates. Link to “www.tormey.net”.
An Entertainment Attorney With A General Practice
Those working in music, film, television, and other reaches of the arts,
entertainment, and media fields, will from time-to-time find themselves
in search of an entertainment attorney for transactional
or advisory matters. So, too, may those seeking a film lawyer to endeavor
to place a screenplay or teleplay with Acquisitions and Development
recipients, or those seeking a music lawyer to endeavor to place a demo
with A&R executives.
So, too, may those in search of contractual, corporate, limited
liability company (LLC), intellectual property (copyright and trademark),
or other general law practice matters. Naturally, all want to make the
best possible choice of music lawyer, film lawyer, entertainment lawyer,
motion picture production counsel, or other counsel as appropriate and
as needed. As those seeking legal services continue to gravitate towards
the Internet as a lawyer-search fact-finding tool to be used in their
search for an entertainment lawyer or other form of counsel, I will
continue to post this website in anticipated and proactive response
to those attorney-search efforts.
Please Contact Me With Regard To Your Needs For Legal Services
Be it production counsel work or other transactional work relating to
motion pictures, script or demo submissions, including submission of
a demo to A&R recipients, record contracts, management or agency
agreements, formation of business entities, clearances, licensing -
or agreements relating to life-story rights, co-ventures, talent,
video distribution, options, acquisitions, or any form of contract
or matter that I handle otherwise - I bring affordable
legal services to those that need them. I represent individuals
and companies alike. Please contact
me for my written submission guidelines, and please review these
guidelines prior to forwarding artistic material - such as a demo, screenplay,

to hearing from you.
