Entertainment and Media Law in Ireland draws on author Simon Shire’s wealth of experience as a solicitor practising in the entertainment market to provide a comprehensive and practical guide for everyone in the sector.

The book aims to be a convenient ‘heads-up’ resource for creative practitioners and business/legal advisors alike.

Presented in straightforward language for market entrants, it simultaneously cites legislation, EU/international law and case law precedent from Ireland and a number of other common law jurisdictions for the benefit of its more industry-experienced audience.

Mr Shire is a consultant solicitor and notary public who specialises in entertainment law. A former law lecturer at the University of Limerick, he currently lectures at PulseCollege in Dublin on its postgraduate diploma/MA programme in scoring for film, TV and interactive media. Outside of his legal practice, he also acts as an executive producer on TV and film projects.
