Legal Structuring

We assist gaming startups and studios in choosing and setting up the right legal structure, whether as a private limited company, LLP, or partnership, ensuring they are aligned with investor-readiness and operational needs. Our team guides on drafting founders’ agreements, shareholding structures, and governance frameworks, reducing conflicts and ensuring smooth business operations while meeting regulatory requirements.
We draft and review development, publishing, and co-production agreements for gaming studios to protect their interests during collaborations.

Our approach helps prevent disputes while ensuring that developers and publishers have a balanced, transparent framework for ongoing and future projects.
Drafting Game Development & Publishing Contracts
Intellectual
Property & Licensing Protection
Protecting your game’s intellectual property is critical for long-term success. We help register and enforce copyrights for game codes, designs, and music, secure trademarks for game titles and logos, and structure licensing deals for global distribution. Our services safeguard your creative assets while ensuring you retain control over their commercial use, helping you monetise effectively.
Gaming businesses must comply with India’s IT Act, data protection guidelines, consumer protection laws, and advertising norms to operate legally and avoid penalties. We help you navigate these regulations by reviewing in-game purchases, ad content, refund policies, and data collection practices to ensure compliance. This reduces legal risks while maintaining player trust and operational stability.
Regulatory
Compliance for Gaming Businesses
EULA & Terms of Service Drafting
Clear and enforceable End-User License Agreements (EULA) and Terms of Service are essential for managing player expectations and protecting your legal rights. We draft these documents to cover user rights, restrictions on game usage, payment and refund terms, dispute resolution clauses, and content moderation rules, ensuring your platform is legally secure while remaining user-friendly.
We assist gaming companies in setting up age-appropriate content guidelines and moderation policies in compliance with local laws and platform requirements. This includes reviewing in-game content, loot boxes, and chat moderation practices to prevent regulatory violations and protect minors. Our services help create a safer, compliant gaming environment while reducing liability for your business.
Content Moderation & Age Compliance
Influencer &
Brand Collaboration Contracts
For gaming companies engaging with influencers and brands for promotions, we draft and review collaboration agreements that define deliverables, payment terms, content guidelines, IP usage, and compliance with advertising standards. This protects your interests while enabling effective marketing campaigns, ensuring all parties are aligned and potential disputes are minimised.
Disputes are inevitable in the fast-paced gaming industry. We provide advisory on managing legal risks and handling disputes efficiently, including those related to IP infringements, payment defaults, or player complaints. Our team helps design internal grievance redressal systems and represents clients in negotiations or legal proceedings, ensuring minimal disruption to business operations.
