Cable and Media

Our media clients include large cable multiple-system operators, major cable programming networks, and national and state cable industry trade associations, as well as broadcast stations.  With this diverse client base, Mintz Levin has been and remains at the forefront of the administrative, judicial and legislative proceedings that have and will continue to shape the future of the media industry. Our practice brings us before the FCC, Congress, the Copyright Office, federal and state courts, state regulatory agencies, and local municipalities on a regular basis.

 We represent our clients in a wide range of regulatory and legislative matters, from issues raised by the deployment of broadband and Voice over Internet Protocol services to ownership limits and the appropriate treatment of cable competitors like direct broadcast satellite, telephone companies, and Internet-based video. We represent our clients on local franchising and rights-of-way access issues, counsel them on rate regulation, privacy, and technology policy issues, and advise them on intellectual property and Constitutional law matters. We also assist our cable and broadcast clients in identifying and pursuing new strategic business opportunities.
