Entertainment Visas

We have a dedicated arm of our firm working solely on immigration advice and securing visas for our clients, headed up by Registered Migration Agent Josh Calligeros, who works exclusively in assisting clients with all aspects of the migration process.

‍

As a law firm working in the creative and entertainment industries, we offer the massive advantage of being able to advise on all legal matters connected with the engagement of (and disputes/complexities with) touring parties and visa applicants, such as contract negotiation, intellectual property protection and acquisition, exclusivity arrangements, ‘no shows’ and legal claims. 

‍

We focus almost entirely on securing 408 Entertainment Visas and have developed a streamlined process with a very high success rate to ensure a smooth experience for our clients in line with Creative Lawyers overall offering as a ‘one-stop-shop’ for entertainment business.

‍

Creative Lawyers can assist with single visas for individuals, or work on a suite of visas for bands, festivals, events, large productions or other groups.
