About Daniel
Biography
WE ARE REINVENTING THE BUSINESS OF LAW.
Dan Scott spent over 12 years at some of the best law firms in the world, including Sullivan & Cromwell, LLP and Chadbourne & Parke LLP. Determined to bring that same level of expertise and service to a broader range of clients at a fixed and more affordable cost, Dan set out to launch his own practice in 2014. His unique style and brand of providing legal services and advice is refreshing, effective and greatly appreciated (many clients call him the "un-lawyer".) As a musician and writer himself, Dan uses his creativity and personal experience to find innovative solutions and assist clients in achieving their own greatest success. Dan is also devoted to educating and serving the creative community and focusing on the needs of musicians, actors and other entertainers, and is a pioneer in the realm of artist legacy planning.
