The Production Company is required to engage Production counsel to handle all day to day legal matters in connection with the program. If production counsel is the Production Company’s internal counsel, they must have the capacity to handle all day to day production matters. Amazon Legal reserves the right to request the hiring of external Production counsel if it deems necessary to meet production legal needs. Any external Production counsel engaged by the Production Company must be approved by Amazon Legal.
Amazon Legal often relies on the assistance of its own outside counsel to assist in coordination with the Production Company and their counsel in order to ensure compliance with Amazon policies regarding contract negotiation, legal compliance and content review. The key points of contact will be the Amazon lawyer leading the project and any Amazon outside counsel assigned to the production.
Amazon Legal (or its designated outside counsel) will lead a legal kickoff call with the Production Company’s counsel to introduce key stakeholders and cover key Amazon policies and particular concerns for the production.
Disclaimer
Nothing in this policy should be considered legal advice and the Production Company should always confirm compliance with all applicable laws with its own legal counsel.
