McNaul continues to have an active video game practice and represents creators of some of the most popular video games in the world and startup studios founded by established industry veterans. We represent clients in both traditional game development and publishing deals and venture capital equity financing. We also help our video game clients review and negotiate platform distribution agreements, intellectual property licensing agreements, and merchandising agreements.
With a pragmatic approach and commercial awareness, we look at situations holistically and work closely with our clients to manage all aspects of a transaction, not just legal tactics. Deeply committed to client service and quality, we look to create and maintain long-standing relationships with our clients and other participants in commercial transactions.
