If you’re a publisher or author looking to distribute your work, it’s essential to have a strong publication agreement in place. A well-written publication agreement lays out the terms of your relationship with a distributor or publisher and protects your interests. The agreement should clearly define your rights and responsibilities, as well as those of the other party.

We can help you address a wide range of issues, including royalties, rights, marketing, and distribution.

When it comes to publishing agreements, it’s important to consider the following key areas:

1. Royalty Payments: Your publication agreement should outline the terms and amount of royalties you will receive for the sale of your work. This includes both print and digital royalties.
2. Rights: Your agreement should clearly state what rights you’re granting to the other party, such as the right to distribute your work in various formats, the right to use your name and likeness, and the right to sublicense your work to third parties.
3. Marketing: The agreement should specify who is responsible for promoting and marketing your work, as well as what resources will be allocated for this purpose.
4. Distribution: Your agreement should detail how your work will be distributed and in what format, including print, digital, and audio.
5. Termination: The agreement should outline the conditions under which it can be terminated by either party and what happens to your rights and royalties after termination.
