Parent(s)/Guardian(s) of Minor Actors

We have been approached in person and emailed by Parents/Guardians of Minor Actors questioning why they thought their child actor was going to receive this income for services rendered, but in the end got a lot less money.

Why they ask?

The first query asked to the parent/guardian is: “Did you read the contract before signing?’”

Second query: “If there was no contract from the Producer/Promoter to sign, did you as the Parent/Guardian have your own comprehensive, amended as necessary, pre-purchased contract ready?”

It’s a great responsibility if you are directing or administering your Minor child’s career. You must be prepared legally. It is called show business and the business world runs on contracts. You will notice on the left hand column of every page on this site, Minor agreements and contracts are labeled for Minors from those who have passed the age of majority in your jurisdiction.

Our contracts are based on the principles of contract law, are country neutral and may be used in Australia, Canada, England, India, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa, United Sates or any country whose legal principles are based on the English or American Legal System.
