A voice job ends when you send the files. The contract doesn't. Usage, term, exclusivity and AI language decide where your voice turns up next year, and whether you're paid when it does. Here's what to look for, with the wording unions and voice actors' groups now publish for you to use.
Paul Lehrman and Linnea Sage are working voice actors. Both recorded voice jobs for a client. According to a summary of the case by the law firm Loeb & Loeb, "They were told their recordings would be used solely for internal and academic research."
The two say their voices were later cloned and sold by the AI voice company Lovo, and they sued. In July 2025 Judge J. Paul Oetken of the federal court in Manhattan threw out most of their copyright and trademark claims, but let the breach of contract claims go ahead, along with claims under New York's right of publicity and consumer protection laws. Steve Cohen of Pollock Cohen, the actors' law firm, called it "a spectacular victory for the plaintiffs." Lehrman said: "This is a powerful and affirming decision."
