Owner/CEO

I have worked extensively with this firm for 25+ years and recommend them highly. They are world leading in Intellectual Property law areas from Film and Television to Video games and ancillary areas such as Publishing, Toys etc. We have used them for worldwide trademark and copyright enforcement as ...well as complex merger and acquisition deals, litigation and business negotiations. It's a great team.

Movie deal

I went to Fred when Amazon Studios offered to option the film rights for an article I had written. The entire process from option, with many contingencies, to an eventual buy was long and tortured, especially at the end when the options expired. and the issue became another option or walk away. At ev...ery step of that process, Fred was there, quick to respond, and to offer wise counsel. And we got the deal done!

Entertainment & Media Expertise

I've been a client of the firm for many years and always received great service on a variety of legal matters related to entertainment, media, intellectual property, and gaming. Like many professionals and businesses in these sectors, I've also relied on Fred for solid business advice related to tra...nsactions in these areas. Over the years, I have recommended Fred to several other potential clients (large and small) both domestic and in countries around the world, and I have been thanked by all those who have retained him. I continue to work with Fred on a variety of matters and could not be more pleased with the quality of the work and the fine working relationship.

Excellence personified

I have engaged Fierst Bloomberg Ohm LLP over the past fifteen years for both estate and licensing concerns. Fred Fierst is brilliant, professional and caring. He has consistently shown himself to be insightful, strategic and honorable, as is the firm. I can't say enough about how excellent they ar...e as a law firm. I trust them implicitly. Fred helped me win a major case in estate law and have always looked after my needs in licensing and contracts. My experience has shown me that he and the firm are expert in licensing, entertainment and intellectual property. I recommend Fred Fierst and his practice to anyone.

Intellectual Property Law

Exceptional firm. As the CEO of Mirage Studios, the company that created the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, I had the pleasure of working with Attorney Fred Fierst and his team for over 25 years on a host of complex domestic and international intellectual property, licensing and entertainment industry... issues. The services provided were always exceptional. With Fred representing us, I never felt outgunned no matter the size of the law firm Mirage was facing. And on top of the legal expertise of the firm, the strength that proved itself most useful time and again was Fred’s creative negotiating ability to solve even the most intractable legal and business issues. I highly recommend Fierst Bloomberg Ohm LLP to anyone seeking responsive, expert, creative legal services.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
