Legal Advice
Euroscript offers specialist legal advice to anyone involved in film through Kevan Tidy at Tidylaw. Kevan's main objective as a lawyer is to ensure that creatives get a good deal. Before qualifying as a lawyer, he was a musician and songwriter, and after encountering the typical problems of the music business he developed a strong interest in issues of contract and copyright.
Kevan soon realised that the only lawyers dealing in this kind of law were mainly in London and very expensive. There was nothing for up-and-coming writers and artists or those with limited financial resources. He was one of the founders of the International Entertainment Division of Arthur Andersen, the largest legal practice in the world. For the last eight years he has run his own specialist law firm.
Kevan will be pleased to answer questions on copyright and other forms of intellectual property, media and entertainment law, how to read contracts and the pros and cons of setting up companies. He has never turned away anyone on the grounds that they cannot afford his advice, and can help aspiring musicians, inventors and visual artists as well as writers. fromkevan@yahoo.co.uk
