Licensing and Royalties

Licensing is a multi-billion dollar, worldwide business that continues to grow. However, even with all the growth and revenue generated, licensors may not be recovering their full share of royalties. Since we began servicing our client’s licensing and royalty business in the 1980s, our licensing practice area has grown into one of the country’s most comprehensive practices. Today, many of our professionals in the licensing and royalty services division at Miller Kaplan Arase are regarded as industry leaders, and often speak and hold courses for some of the industry’s key decision makers. Over the years, our service reach has grown tremendously and now we perform our licensing services on a localized basis in countries spread throughout the world.

Customer Service and Licensing and Royalty Services

Our approach to client care is based on communication and efficiency. We effectively work to communicate our progress, recent findings and areas of concern to help guide our clients with evaluating licensee compliance and identifying under-reporting of royalties and other violations of licensing and royalty agreement provisions.

While performing our services on our client’s behalf, our professionals remain sensitive to the relationship between the licensor and licensee, working diligently to ensure that our work is conducted efficiently with minimal disruption to the licensee’s operation. This is possible because of the training our professionals receive before conducting the procedures at the licensee’s offices.

In addition, our teams have depth and relevant experience in providing royalty compliance services for a myriad of industries, including but not limited to: Apparel, Toys, Art, Automotive, Music, Television, Film, Cosmetics, Consumer Products, Sports, Food & Beverage, and Technology.
