Media and Communications Practice Group

Thompson Coburn LLP’s Media and Communications practice group helps our clients make connections with their intended audiences.

We handle communications issues for all kinds of clients – news media, advertisers, and general businesses.

We seek to facilitate and protect the client’s communications function in all media — print, broadcast, person to person, or the Internet.

The Media and Communications practice group meets the disparate needs of news media and communications firms, and companies which, during the course of their ordinary business, face communications legal issues.

We handle our client’s communications legal needs in the most appropriate and cost-effective manner. As a result our practice involves significant pre-publication review, for the media, advertising professionals, other marketing professionals, and businesses that want to communicate in the most effective and low-risk manner.

We also counsel and train clients in how to communicate effectively with the least legal risk including seminars for news media and advertising professionals regarding the legal rules and practical hazards in their businesses, and the best means for avoiding them.
