The prospect of a lucrative international contract often blinds artists to the risks involved in allowing
someone abroad to distribute, manufacture or sell their work. If the artist is not savvy to the games certain
uncouth foreign companies play, he may find himself facing diminished quality of his work, compromised
royalties or fudged sales reports. In a nightmare scenario, an artist may unintentionally grant ownership
of the work to an outside party. The international law attorneys at McCallion & Associates compose airtight international contracts. Headquartered in New York City, New York, our offices are convenient for anyone considering trading or selling their work overseas. Contact our lawyers today if you have questions regarding foreign
trade, copyrights, or international law.
Precautions
Before you agree to sell or trade your goods, artwork, or intellectual property overseas, it is advised that you:
» Avoid being the first U.S. artist to deal with a foreign licensee
» Contact all other artists who have worked with the licensee and, if possible, discuss their experiences
» Include ample legal protection for yourself in your contract
» Learn and utilize international trade terminology
Unfortunately, no matter how strong your legal contract or defense strategy, a trial held on foreign soil
awards the defendant a strong advantage. Should he choose to declare bankruptcy or close his business,
you may be left with nothing but a lesson learned.
