Encompassing theatre and live events work, the practice at Simkins LLP is routinely instructed by major music clients, international event organisations and live production venues. The team handles various commercial agreements – from performer contracts to venue leasing – and litigation matters related to cancelled performances, tour disputes or contractual breaches. Publishing is another key pillar of the team, which advises on e-publication and digital distribution issues, as well as traditional publishing contracts and sales. Music specialist Euan Lawson focuses on live events and theatre-related issues. James Harman assists a number of literary agent clients on transactions and agreements.
