I retained the services of Lowe & Associates to handle an ADR dispute with Airbnb, and I couldn't be more pleased with both the process and the outcome. Attorneys Aleksandra Hilvert and Steven Lowe were thorough, tenacious, and genuinely fought for me. Kevin was fantastic too!I'll be honest: I'm not the easiest client. I ask a lot of questions and have strong opinions. They handled me with patience, professionalism, and grace. That alone is worth five stars. Highly recommend.

Instead he scheduled me an appointment to Speak to Attorney Lowe. Just a little patience an time to really hear what the person had to say goes a long way. Thank U Lowe & Associates for having a very Professional Employee like Kevin.

I can’t say enough great things about Lowe & Associates. Steve, Vik, and Megan were an incredible team to work with. I reached out to them during a stressful situation where I felt overwhelmed and unsure of who to trust. From day one, they were professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate. They took the time to dig into every detail of the case, uncovered key facts, and guided me through the process with clarity — giving me peace of mind and a path forward. Their deep understanding of the entertainment industry was clear from the start, and they made a very difficult situation feel manageable. Most of all, I appreciated their patience and care. After such a negative business experience, I was hesitant and protective, but they were kind, reassuring, and never rushed me. I’m deeply grateful for their help and would highly recommend Lowe & Associates to anyone seeking strong, trustworthy legal representation — especially in the entertainment space.

We engaged Lowe & Associates to take care of a pressing legal problem we were facing. Attorneys Steve Lowe, Vikram Amritraj and their team analyzed the challenges, developed a strategy and quickly instituted a plan. They carried out their work in a careful and professional manner. The lawyers were fast to respond to emails and would get on the phone with us when we needed to consult directly. In the field of entertainment law, they proved to all involved that they were on top of the material and experienced experts. With their skills they really hit the ball out of the park for us. In the end we were very satisfied with how the matter was resolved. The Lowe firm promised us much and then delivered.

My company hired Lowe & Associates to represent us in an erroneous lawsuit that was brought up by a client that breached contract services. Steven and his team were very professional and responsive, and they explained the road along the way. I would like to highlight Aleksandra Hilvert and her attention to detail, professionalism, and passion for what she does. You can tell she truly enjoys what she does. We are extremely happy with the results Steven and his firm were able to achieve in getting the case dismissed in our favor!

Steven Lowe and Vikram Amritraj stepped in under a tight deadline to represent me before the California Court of Appeals in a breach of implied contract case involving a billion-dollar movie released by a major Hollywood studio. They mastered a long and difficult case and wrote a persuasive brief in record time. They were able to do this because they have a complete mastery of case law in regard to copyright and idea appropriation. In addition, it was a pleasure to work with both of them. They kept in close communication with me and were responsive to my ideas. At the same time, they have high professional standards and insist on making the best decisions for the case. I give them the highest recommendation.

I had the privilege of being represented by Lowe and Associates in the case of "Summit Kaiju LLC v. Legend Pictures, LLC". The attorneys on my case, Steven Lowe and Tori Mulvey, were nothing short of exceptional. From the onset, they demonstrated a deep understanding of the legal landscape and were able to navigate the complexities of my case with ease. Their professionalism and dedication were evident in every interaction, and they always kept me informed about the progress of the case. What impressed me the most was their ability to just come in and take over my case from another console, which exceeded my expectations. Their strategic approach and negotiation skills truly shone during this process, and I was pleasantly surprised by the outcome. I would highly recommend Lowe and Associates to anyone in need of top-notch legal representation. Their expertise, dedication, and commitment to their clients are what set them apart in the legal field. Their handling of confidentiality and non-disclosure provisions is also commendable, ensuring that I was fully aware of my obligations.

"As a creative independent producer, I came to Lowe and Associates with an idea theft case a few years ago. Steven Lowe and Aleksandra Hilvert of the firm proved to be unpretentious and great listeners, giving valuable advice and options. They were honest about the possible outcomes of my issues and the costs involved. Both Steven and Aleksandra had integrity while working closely with me. I always felt that they put me and my case first. There were no runarounds or attempts to convince me that spending more meant better results. They are moral, ethical and smart, very smart and in my opinion the very best at what they do. Really. I could not more highly recommend these attorneys."

Entertainment Law

Entertainment Litigation

Litigation involves resolving disputes through the court system, whether by trial, arbitration, or mediation/settlement. The entertainment industry frequently encounters situations that necessitate litigation.

Our Beverly Hills entertainment law firm offers comprehensive guidance and representation in these areas:

Copyright Infringement: Protecting original works from unauthorized use and seeking legal action when rights are violated.
Royalty Disputes: Ensuring proper compensation for artists, creators, and producers, and resolving payment disagreements.
Takedown Notices: Assisting with the issuance or response to notices for removing unauthorized content from platforms.
Disputes with Distributors: Handling conflicts related to contractual obligations or revenue allocations with distributors.
Idea Theft: Representing clients who believe their unique concepts have been misappropriated without fair compensation.
Breach of Contract: Addressing violations of agreed-upon terms, whether oral, written, or implied.
Rights of Publicity and Privacy: Protecting individuals from unauthorized commercial use of their persona, name, likeness, or other identifiers.
Defamation: Defending those wrongly portrayed in media and seeking redress for damaged reputations.
Fraud and Breach of Fiduciary Duty: Tackling deceitful practices, breaches of trust, and other wrongful business actions.

Our primary aim is to resolve disputes through negotiation and mediation. If necessary, we are prepared to pursue litigation. Our attorneys are adept at handling cases in both federal and state courts.

Entertainment Transactions

Contracts are critical in the entertainment industry. Our Beverly Hills entertainment attorneys specialize in drafting, negotiating, and reviewing contracts, and securing intellectual property rights in:

Television;
Film;
Music; and
Art and fashion.

We strive to prevent disputes before they arise with well-crafted agreements that positively impact our clients’ lives and careers.

We also assist creators with registering their intellectual property and forming business entities to exploit these assets.

Entertainment Contracts

Professionals in the entertainment industry often excel in creativity but may lack the expertise to navigate legal contracts. Our role is to manage these legal concerns, ensuring that you can focus on your craft.

We handle various entertainment contracts, including:

talent agreements;
royalty agreements;
option agreements; and
distribution contracts.

Actors, Artists, Directors, and Producers

Our law firm has a history of representing actors, artists, directors, and producers. Contracts should clearly define:

licensed or transferred rights
compensation;
duration;
termination clauses; and
royalties and back-end compensation.

These matters are best managed by experienced entertainment lawyers to safeguard your interests.

Breach of Entertainment Contracts in Beverly Hills, CA

In a contract, each party agrees to specific terms that they are expected to fulfill. A breach of contract occurs when one party fails to perform any part of the agreement without a legal excuse.

To establish a breach of contract, the plaintiff must demonstrate:

the existence of a valid contract,
that the contract was violated,
that you suffered damages, and
that the defendant was responsible for those damages

Ensuring Your Contracts Are Valid

Consulting a lawyer to draft a valid and enforceable contract is crucial. Entertainment disputes can become contentious, but an ironclad contract is the best way to protect your rights and interests.

Never sign a contract without having a lawyer review and analyze its terms thoroughly. Contract language can have precise and specialized meanings that differ from ordinary usage. Companies may use complex language to gain an advantage over you.

Breach of Contract Lawsuits

Attorney Letter

Sometimes, a demand letter from your lawyer urging the other party to comply with the contract or cease breaching activities can prevent the need for litigation. An attorney’s letter indicating that a lawsuit will be filed may persuade the other party to fulfill their contractual obligations.

Mediation

Mediation involves a neutral third party facilitating the negotiation of a settlement between the parties. This process aims to avoid litigation by reaching an amicable resolution.

Filing a Lawsuit

If settlement negotiations fail, you need experienced legal counsel to file a breach of contract lawsuit and proceed with litigation. We can file a lawsuit to enforce your rights and obligations.

Damages for Breach of Contract

Winning a breach of contract case can result in various remedies to compensate for the damages suffered, including:

specific performance of contract terms (in certain situations);
monetary damages to place you in the position you would have been if the breach had not occurred;
injunctions requiring a party to do or refrain from doing something (in certain situations); and
restitution.

With your lawyer’s assistance, you can prove your damages in court and receive compensation for your losses due to the breach of contract.

Consult an Experienced Beverly Hills Entertainment Lawyer

A party that breaches a contract should face consequences. An entertainment contract can be enforced with the help of a skilled entertainment litigator.
