Entertainment, Sports and Media

For nearly all of our 127 years, O’Melveny & Myers LLP has represented motion picture studios, television, music and new media companies, sports organizations, governing bodies, professional sports teams (and their owners), financial institutions, strategic investors, and individual talent on groundbreaking and significant industry transactions. As financial models and technological changes force entertainment, sports and media companies to re-tool their business strategies, one thing remains the same – they continue to turn to the law firm that has guided entertainment, sports and media industry leaders since Hollywood’s Golden Age and from the initial migration of professional sports to the West Coast. 

Our reputation as the “go-to” law firm for complex entertainment, sports and media transactions is predicated on our in-depth industry knowledge, our extensive experience, and our rich tradition of approaching every deal with diligence, perspective, and innovation. Complementing our industry knowledge, our clients around the world are served by O'Melveny's leading attorneys in areas such as licensing, mergers & acquisitions, finance, joint ventures and strategic alliances, litigation, tax, contracts, intellectual property, project development and infrastructure, employee benefits, labor, and the Internet and other new technologies.

In 2008, 2009 and 2011, O'Melveny received the prestigious Chambers USA Award for Excellence in Media. And O'Melveny continues to receive Chambers' recognition as having top practices in both Media & Entertainment and Sports. As the Entertainment, Sports and Media industries continue to converge, O’Melveny is uniquely positioned at the forefront of the profession to offer unparalleled legal representation to our Entertainment and Sports industry clients.
