For over a decade, we have supported the game development industry, from independent studios to AAA game producers. We advise teams that create, publish, and commercialize games, helping them navigate the complex legal environment of production, distribution, and global sales of digital products.
We work on projects covering the full lifecycle of a game: from studio structure and collaboration models, through production and publishing contracts, to monetization, marketing, and long-term product maintenance. We also support the use of new technologies — including AI-based tools — in game development, ensuring the protection of content rights, data, and accountability. Additionally, we advise on esports, particularly in organizing tournaments, collaborating with players, sponsors, and media partners.
