Employment
As business lawyers, we understand that personnel issues can arise. We have, therefore, dedicated ourselves to understanding these issues and, more importantly, learning how to resolve them, whether informally or procedurally.
We specialize in resolving personnel issues, whether through proactive compliance strategies or dispute resolution. Our goal is to help clients avoid workplace problems, but when disputes arise, we're ready to advocate for their best interests. Our expertise includes drafting employee handbooks, ensuring legal compliance, and handling claims involving disability accommodations, non-compete agreements, wage disputes, severance, and more.

Entertainment
Our lawyers understand both the law and the business of the entertainment industry. We are experienced representing game developers and publishers, podcasters, music publishers, songwriters, musical performers and recording artists, actors, directors, producers, screenwriters and authors. We represent clients in contract formation, negotiation and disputes; and intellectual property (copyrights and trademarks) content creation, acquisition, ownership and licensing.Whether for game development, musical compositions and recordings, or film and television production, our practice includes protecting the interest of content creators and businesses alike.

Intellectual property
Whether for entertainment or business, intellectual property may be the most important asset our client owns. Trademarks, e.g., represent our client’s brand and must be protected at all costs. For this reason, we assist our clients with trademark selection, strategy, registration, renewal, maintenance and enforcement. Copyrights, on the other hand, may be the principal source of a client’s revenue derived through commercial exploitation. We therefore advise and counsel our clients on content creation, infringement avoidance, registration, protection, licensing and threatened or potential claims and analysis. In either case, we help our clients understand protect their intellectual property rights.

At Cooper & Iravani, we handle both commercial and residential lease agreements, property disputes, and more. Our team is experienced in advising clients on matters such as landlord-tenant negotiations, property management, real estate transactions, and dispute resolution. We ensure our clients understand their rights and obligations, helping them protect their investments and resolve any challenges, whether through negotiation or litigation.
