Eaton Smith LLP has a long association with the video games industry, was the winner of the 2020 TIGA Award for Best Legal Services Supplier and is delighted to participate as a sponsor of the TIGA UK Games Industry Awards 2021.
The experienced video games team at Eaton Smith LLP offers a full range of legal services to established developers and publishers and indie devs; from confidentiality agreements, publishing agreements, outsourcing contracts and IP licenses to dispute resolution services and employment-related documentation and services.
What sets these legal experts apart is their understanding of what a games development studio goes through to launch a game, from prototype and pre-production stages through to polish and release. They can help with and represent games companies in documenting an investment being made by investors or drafting any intellectual property licences or transfers being considered or any other contracts that may be needed at any time. They can also assist and advise on the legal aspects for any marketing initiatives that game businesses may have planned for the run up to the release of a game.
The team’s significant experience in the video games industry means that they understand the environment and pressures under which all concerned operate, and they can often be found taking part in #gamedev and #indiedev discussions on Twitter.
TIGA would like to thank Eaton Smith for its support and for sponsoring the TIGA UK Games Industry Awards 2021,” said Dr Richard Wilson OBE, TIGA CEO.
The winners of the TIGA UK Games Industry Awards 2021 will be announced in a virtual ceremony on 25th November 2021.
