Right of Publicity

Public figures and brands have the exclusive right to control the commercial use of their identity — name, image, likeness, and voice. Using any of them to sell something without permission can be a serious, and valuable, violation.

What a case looks like

A company builds a campaign around a celebrity’s face or voice without a license, profiting from an identity it had no right to use.

Illustrative scenario, not an actual case.

As with every matter we take on contingency, we look for clear liability, at least $5 million in damages, and a defendant who can pay.

Have a case worth more than $5 million?

Tell us about it. The evaluation is free, and confidential.
