  • Lawyer's cut on merchandise?

    I've been wondering, when you have a contract with your lawyer where they get a cut of your proceeds from a deal they helped negotiate, does that include things such as further proceeds from the IP, eg merchandise sequels etc?

    Your lawyer gets 5% of what you get. You get to keep your residuals. Merchandise...? Cute.

      Hey, guys.

      Side question: Do writers ever share their residuals with anyone? Agent, Lawyer, Manager, Union?

      I ask because I saw a high-profile lawsuit between an actress and her manager over residuals, and I just wondered what the deal is.

      Thanks.
