Know which production deals already have a draft agreement
The intake asks whether the prospect is a producer, filmmaker, or rights holder, confirms whether the project has a U.S. connection, and captures any existing draft agreement or deal memo before the matter reaches your CRM.

The questions your team needs answered
Every production agreements intake asks these — and why each one matters.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Are you a producer, filmmaker, content creator, production company, or rights holder who needs help with a production agreement for a project? | Confirms the prospect actually holds a role — producer, filmmaker, rights holder, or production company — that would need a production agreement drafted or negotiated. |
| Is the project connected to the United States (for example, a U.S. party, filming, distribution, or the contract will be governed by U.S. law)? | U.S. jurisdiction affects whether the matter falls within a U.S.-licensed attorney's scope, so this answer is weighted heavily. |
| Do you already have a draft agreement, deal memo, term sheet, or written offer that you want reviewed or negotiated? | A prospect with an existing draft agreement or deal memo is closer to a billable review or negotiation than someone starting from scratch. |
| Are you planning to sign, start production, or commit money within the next 60 days? | A near-term signing or production start date signals urgency and readiness to engage counsel now rather than months out. |
| Is there a real dispute or risk right now (for example, payment, credits, ownership of footage, deadlines, or someone backing out)? | An active dispute over payment, credits, or footage ownership often needs faster attention than a routine drafting request. |
| Do you know who the other party or parties are (names of the person/company you would be contracting with)? | A "yes" flags a higher-value, higher-urgency lead you’ll want to reach first. |
| Is this about a production agreement (such as producer services, co-production, line production, crew/talent deal, location, or post-production) rather than only a trademark, patent, or personal injury issue? | This is the key filter that keeps trademark, patent, or personal injury inquiries from being mistaken for production agreement matters. |

Example production agreements lead scenarios
Illustrative situations explain the intake questions and possible follow-up.
Producer with a deal memo to negotiate
A production company already has a draft agreement or term sheet and plans to sign or commit money within 60 days — the intake flags this as high value and time-sensitive.
Dispute over footage or credits
A filmmaker or crew member reports a live dispute — payment, credits, ownership of footage, or someone backing out — which the intake surfaces as a risk signal worth prioritizing.
Early inquiry, counterparty unknown
A prospect wants a production agreement but hasn't yet identified the other party by name — the intake still captures the matter but weights it lower until that detail is known.
Wrong matter type filtered out
Someone submits a trademark, patent, or personal injury question rather than a production agreement — the intake's matter-type question routes this away from your production docket.
Non-U.S. project outside jurisdiction
A production has no U.S. party, filming, distribution, or governing law — the intake flags the missing U.S. connection so you can decide fit before a consultation is booked.

Production Agreements lead-intake FAQs
How does the intake keep trademark or personal injury questions off my production docket?
One of the catalog questions directly asks whether the matter is a production agreement — producer services, co-production, line production, crew/talent, location, or post-production — rather than a trademark, patent, or personal injury issue, so mismatched inquiries are flagged before they reach you.
Can the intake tell me if a prospect already has a draft agreement or deal memo?
Yes, the intake asks whether the prospect has a draft agreement, deal memo, term sheet, or written offer they want reviewed or negotiated, and that answer carries significant weight in the score.
Does the intake check whether a project has any connection to the United States?
Yes, one catalog question confirms whether there is a U.S. party, U.S. filming or distribution, or U.S. governing law involved, which matters for jurisdiction fit.
What happens if a lead doesn't yet know who the other party is?
The intake still accepts and scores the lead but weights that answer lower than a lead who already knows the name of the person or company they'd be contracting with, since counterparty identity affects how ready the matter is.
How does the intake handle leads mentioning a dispute over credits or ownership of footage?
A dedicated question asks whether there's a real dispute or risk right now — payment, credits, footage ownership, deadlines, or someone backing out — and that answer is weighted highly since active disputes usually need faster attention.
Is this intake different from the one used for Talent and Management Agreements?
Yes, each subservice in the library uses its own qualification catalog; Production Agreements asks about producers, rights holders, and production-specific deal types, while Talent and Management Agreements has a separate set of questions.
