Foreign Rights Strategy Consultation

$175.0045 min

The Foreign Rights Strategy Consultation is a one-on-one session designed for authors who are facing concrete questions about foreign rights and want informed, thoughtful guidance before making decisions.

This consultation is particularly helpful if you:

  • Have received an inquiry from a foreign publisher

  • Are negotiating a domestic publishing contract and unsure whether to include foreign rights

  • Are self-publishing and want to understand how international licensing fits into your long-term strategy

  • Have already licensed foreign rights and want clarity on your current position

During the session, we will review your specific situation, clarify the rights involved, and discuss practical options based on industry norms and long-term stewardship. The goal is not to push a particular outcome, but to help you understand the implications of your choices so you can proceed with confidence.

This consultation does not replace legal counsel, but it provides strategic, experience-based insight into how foreign rights function in real publishing contexts—especially within Catholic and mission-driven publishing.

What’s Included:

• One 45-minute private consultation (video or phone)

• Review of your current situation or inquiry

• High-level guidance on rights, contracts, and next steps

• Follow-up summary email with key points discussed

*The consultation fee may be credited toward future representation if we decide to work together.

If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, please do so at least 24 hours in advance. Because this time is reserved specifically for you, appointments canceled with less than 24 hours’ notice or missed without notice are non-refundable.
