Law Offices of Lloyd J. Jassin

Lawyers specialize in matters of statutes, contracts, and dispute resolution. If you need counsel on publishing contracts, the Law Offices of Lloyd J. Jassin handles negotiations, rights licensing, and option agreements among other paperwork in the publishing world. The practice also assists with libel review, fair use analysis, and trademark filings for media ventures across various platforms. Beyond disputes, the firm drafts standard and custom contracts tailored to freelancers and small presses, helping clarify expectations before ink dries.

The practice sits in Midtown’s numbered corridors, not far from the garment district’s steady pulse. Visitors find the address at 104 W 40th St, 5th Floor, New York, NY 10018. From Penn Station’s corridors it’s a short walk west, past the clusters of printers and publishers that have long defined the street’s rhythm. Whether paperwork piles up before a print run or deadlines loom for contract renewals, a visit can bring order to the small print.

Legal strategy here targets creative industries where clarity trumps volume. They clarify attribution clauses, audit royalty statements, and mediate conflicts between authors and agents or between presses and translators. The door is open to indie authors with questions about subsidiary rights auctions as much as to fledgling studios mapping out collaboration terms. Translation licenses, work-for-hire agreements, and non-compete clauses all cross their desks on a regular rotation.
