Legal Question in Entertainment Law in Minnesota
entertainment contracts, minors
how do you bind a minor to a record contract in Minnesota? My daughter wants to sign a contract with my blessing, but the record company says they don't know how to write it so she is bound by its terms.

You don't. The parent or guardian, or in some cases business manager, establishes an LLC with an exclusive services arrangement and THAT entity enters into the contract. Restrictions and provisions protecting the artist and the record company need to be incorporated.
Call or email for assistance.
