Collaboration Agreement

$0.00

The Collaboration Agreement is used when two or more writers are working on a screenplay together and they want to establish ownership, how revenues will be divided and how credit will be accorded.  The Collaboration Agreement is important to have in place prior to the writers working together on their screenplay or teleplay.  Once a production company is interested in the written material, the writers may feel that each contributed more than the other.  Having this Collaboration Agreement in place at the outset will help prevent problems when there is interest by a producer or production company.
