How an Entertainment Business Hired a Lawyer to Draft a Brand Licensing Agreement in New York

In 2023, a business in New York sought legal assistance in drafting a brand licensing agreement. The client had been navigating complicated ownership matters pertaining to a registered brand that had changed hands multiple times, including previous discussions with a Swedish company and current disputes involving a French entity. Frustrated by informal approaches that yielded no results, the client was looking for legal recourse to establish ownership rights and seek compensation through U.S. jurisdiction. As a result, the client received five proposals from licensed lawyers, with flat fee bids ranging from $475 to $1,800, all submitted to complete the work within the requested deadline of over a week.
