Fantastic Entertainment Lawyer. Highly Recommended for Production Companies

Adam is one of those rare lawyers that instills immediate confidence in even a chaotic situation, usually as he's giving you exactly the right advice on how to bring it back under control. Sharp as a tack, extremely knowledgable in his domain, and a pleasure to talk to, Adam is an honest broker and a... relationship-centered entertainment lawyer who is able to quickly grasp your individual situation and provide guidance in the context of your entire business. As a production company owner, nothing is more important than an attourney who understands the intricately interlocking parts of your business: talent contracts, MSA's with brands, negotiations with agencies, insurance, industry reputation, IP Law, etc. etc. etc. but I have always found Adam to understand each of these subjects in the context of the others. He contracts quickly, bills fairly, and is easy to reach almost immediately. I have worked with quite a few lawyers in my time, but Adam stands head and shoulders above them. I give the strongest possible recommendation.

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.
