When major Hollywood studios need a Canadian law firm, they call Fraser Milner Casgrain LLP. When lenders want advice on Canadian entertainment law, they call Fraser Milner Casgrain. And when independent producers, sports organizations, media companies or individual artists and performers have contract negotiations in Canada, they call Fraser Milner Casgrain.

Whether it’s a complicated tax structure, a unique funding arrangement, a complex distribution deal or the drafting of a multi-party service contract, the North American sports and entertainment industry and its funders know that, in Canada, FMC has the unique technical strength and experience they need. The deals we love are the ones no one has worked through before.

All this is backed by the depth and breadth of a full-service, forward-thinking national firm. Co-ventures in Vancouver? We’re there. Tax issues in Toronto? No problem. Movie rights in Montréal? Pas de problème. We think like business people and involve lawyers from our offices across the country who can best help our clients achieve their objectives. Government regulations can significantly affect the media and entertainment industries; we have a Public Policy Group that guides our clients through the complex regulatory maze—nationally, provincially and municipally.
