Gráinne McKenna

Having worked on some of the biggest-name film and TV shows over the last 20 years, both as lawyer and client, Gráinne knows the industry inside and out. “My passion is production – assisting the collective team effort that takes an idea from spark to screen. From nascent development to full blown production, culminating in the long awaited premiere, broadcast or stream, I have over twenty years’ experience advising on the life cycle of film and TV content. I was SVP Business & Legal Affairs for many years at Working Title Films and at NBCUniversal International Productions, so I know from first-hand experience what clients require from their legal advisors. Now as an external advisor myself, I aim to provide pragmatic and insightful analysis and advice. I rely on my in-depth sector knowledge and practical production experience to assist clients in converting their strategic aims into successful content and – ultimately – revenue. I act for a wide range of clients – major US film studios, US TV networks and studios, streamers, independent film and TV production companies in the UK, US and Europe. This broad client base means I have exposure to all aspects of the film and TV industries and understand the differing commercial priorities of various parties – producers, talent, financiers, broadcasters and distributors, whether operating within the studio system or as independents. With this perspective I seek to conclude workable, successful transactions for my clients in a clear, collaborative style, across all aspects of development, production and exploitation. Alongside my film and TV practice I also advise on theatre and immersive experience production and am involved in a number of initiatives and programmes promoting greater diversity in the film and TV industry.”

Testimonial We entered into a tribunal against our local authority over an educational provision for our disabled son. We quickly realised that we needed legal representation. We had watched an online workshop hosted by Gurvinder Samra of Shoosmiths LLP and so enlisted her services. Gurvinder dealt with and arranged everything, Tribunal paperwork, expert witnesses, counsel and took charge of the case while maintaining an eye on the mounting fees keeping them at a reasonable level. We ultimately won the case, a result that without Gurvinder's input would have had a different outcome. N & H Tarratt
