Welcome to RightOfPublicity.com
The Right of Publicity (or the current parallel reference, “NIL”) continues evolving through case law and legislation. The Right of Publicity consistently demonstrates the critical role it plays, including NIL deals and legislation for college athletes, deep fakes, and estate tax valuations. The Right of Publicity is often misunderstood or misrepresented, though recognition varies in some respects from state to state and country to country. This does not mean the Right of Publicity is indecipherable. One can discern consistency and critical policy underpinnings in the Right of Publicity. Similarly, with a qualified valuation expert witness, the Right of Publicity can be valued accurately.
A visitor to RightOfPublicity.com will find news, Right of Publicity statutes in the U.S., landmark cases, and other information, often with perspective of someone who has represented notable rights owners for decades and has served as an expert witness in significant Right of Publicity disputes and valuations.
