Labor Commissioner Disputes under the Talent Agencies Act

• In California, the Talent Agencies Act (TAA) regulates talent agencies and their contracts, and it has implications for artists, talent managers, and attorneys, as well as regulating talent agencies themselves. The act, outlined in the California Labor Code, requires talent agencies to be licensed and prohibits unauthorized individuals from acting as agents.

• We help artists to negotiate their contracts with agents and managers to help avoid problems down the line.

• We also assist in dispute resolution and the filing of petitions for the determination of controversies with the Labor Commissioner.
