Biopics, Docuseries & Life Story Projects

Roesler Law is a market leader in the representation and structuring of biopics, docuseries, and life-story projects involving iconic individuals, estates, and high-profile subjects. The firm brings unmatched experience navigating the legal, commercial, and reputational complexities unique to life-story storytelling.

Our attorneys advise rights holders, producers, studios, and financiers on life-rights acquisitions, option and purchase agreements, estate approvals, archival and third-party clearances, defamation and right-of-publicity risk, and downstream licensing and distribution. We routinely structure projects across film, television, streaming, and multi-platform formats, ensuring clean chain of title and long-term exploitation flexibility. Roesler Law understands that life-story projects demand precision, discretion, and credibility. We protect our clients’ interests while enabling creative partners to move decisively—aligning legal strategy with commercial realities to bring culturally significant stories to market.
