Harvey Steven Mars

While working with Harvey, I had limited previous knowledge and no experience with any of the labor issues that I dealing with. Harvey's knowledge and expertise gave me a real advantage to having the right and very important support when needed. He was always available for me with very positive resul...ts.

Harvey has successfully litigated a case involving a non-compete/non-disclosure agreement. Without getting into the merritts of the case, it is enough to say that Harvey was thorough, respectful, and always responsive to calls and emails (something not to be underestated). Additionally , I always fe...lt Harvey was 100% with me, sharing a personal interest in the case. Had the outcome not been favorable, my opinions would be the same. He is simply a good guy to have working on one's behalf.

We worked with Mr. Mars over an almost 2 year period, when a group of us musicians approached the Musician's Union in NYC (Local 802) for help and support. As the union's counsel, Mr. Mars was deeply informed and always willing to go the extra mile to research new angles and options. When question...s arose he always got back to us in a timely way, and was present and dedicated to our case. He never gave us false or unreasonable hopes and we appreciated his grounding in the law and reality, but at the same time he the wonderful ability to also listen to us and think with us outside of the box. Our case was settled positively and turned out to be an historic step for artists. We are so lucky we had Harvey in our corner.

Harvey has now helped me with two legal matters. One was for wrongful termination, the other a dispute with a landlord. In both situations, Harvey made each process painless and did the work for a fair price. I have recommended friends and colleagues to Harvey who have been in similar situations and ...will continue to do so. I am proud to call him "my attorney."

This was a breach of contract dispute which required an attorney with a complete understanding of the complexities of the music business, and specifically a knowledge of recording and distribution contracts. Harvey Mars was the perfect attorney for my situation. Aside from his musical expertise, Harv...ey has been very dedicated, caring, and responsive to all questions and needs. I highly recommend him!
