It’s best to hire a lawyer at the beginning of any legal process and certainly prior to signing any agreement. It’s preferable for you to hire me early enough that I can negotiate the agreement for you. In the event that you need to settle a dispute, it is best to hire me as early as possible and prior to coming to an agreement with the other party. Please refer to the Practice Areas section of this website for a list of the transactions I handle.
I will gladly provide a consultation to anyone who is actively seeking to engage the services of an entertainment attorney. I view the consultation as a way for us to get to know each other and assess whether we are a good fit. Consultations do not include responses to random legal questions.
I will make an attorney submission to any company that will accept one based on your pitch, however, I do not shop material for my clients.
I normally charge an hourly fee. I will consider a percentage based fee if there is a deal on the table large enough to cover my legal fees.
In the interest of fairness, I charge all my clients the same fee.
I offer a flat fee for business entity formations, copyright registrations, trademark applications, and production legal services only.
I require an upfront deposit prior to commencing my services: the deposit is a function of the number of hours I estimate are required multiplied by my hourly rate. The deposit may be provided via check, wire transfer, or PayPal.
Any deposit monies that are not used will be returned to you upon request at the conclusion of services.
