Tyz Law Group Launches Blog Examining Legal Issues in Games Industry
Tyz Law Group, a Northern California-based boutique litigation and IP counseling firm, announced today the launch of Games.Law, a new platform for insights into the evolving legal landscape of the games industry. Found at www.games.law, the blog hosts articles written by Tyz Law Group attorneys that offer practical insights based on legal developments and examine significant cases and their potential repercussions related to the games industry. Tyz Law Group is comprised of six former Big Law and in-house attorneys with extensive, highly specialized experience in the technology, games, software, digital entertainment, cybersecurity, and cloud computing industries.
“We decided to launch this blog when we realized our team has a wealth of collective knowledge and insight to share with not only our clients, but with our many contacts and fellow professionals whose work focuses on the games industry,” says Ryan Tyz, Principal and Founder of Tyz Law Group. “We intend for Games.Law to serve as a repository of information for our team, and hope that other professionals in the games industry will turn to it as a resource to help guide their business decisions as the industry continues to evolve at a rapid clip.”
Tyz Law Group has doubled its team in the last year, attracting attorneys from the world of Big Law such as Jennifer Kelly, whose practice focuses on the games industry. Kelly is one of the foremost authorities on intellectual property issues in games and has been named by The Recorder as the “go-to litigator in ‘game cloning’ cases.” She has led her clients to success in a number of high-profile litigations, including in cases she has handled for Capcom, Electronic Arts, Glu Mobile, Gram Games, Good Job Games, King, Peak Games, and Sega.
“One of the many reasons we’re excited to launch this blog is that it will allow us to provide guidance and litigation updates for our readers during a difficult time when gathering and sharing insights in person is not possible,” says Jennifer Kelly, Partner at Tyz Law Group, who typically delivers the yearly litigation update at the Video Game Bar Association (VGBA)’s Annual Summit. “Games.Law will serve as an alternate communication platform for us to share our ideas with everyone, and we look forward to building its content over the coming months.”
