Law firms ranked by client reviews

Music licensing covers obtaining and negotiating rights to use musical works for venues, broadcasts, online streams, recordings and performances. A solicitor in this area handles licenses from rights holders such as PRS for Music and PPL, drafts and reviews license agreements, and assists clients with permissions for live events, background music, film or TV usage, and online platforms. They advise on compliance, territory and term limits, and collect and apportion royalties, while liaising with venues, event organizers, broadcasters and distributors to ensure lawful use of music assets.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The work involves negotiating terms, understanding the scope of rights (public performance, mechanical, synchronisation, neighbouring rights), and handling royalty calculations and monitoring. A solicitor coordinates with collecting societies, advises on declarations and licenses for multiple venues or channels, and addresses compliance risks, audits, and any disputes that arise over billing or rights ownership.
