Posted by Coleman | February 29, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Copyright Infringement

Help with a dispute with UMG

Steven greatly helped me settle a dispute with Universal Music Group about their copyright claims. As a wedding videographer, I never dreamed that a huge company like UMG would go after me for copyright infringement, but they did and Stephen helped me understand how important it was to take the whol...e thing very seriously. He helped me figure out what UMG was demanding and fought to push back on many of their demands. This helped lower the final bill tremendously. He negotiated for the lowest possible amount of fine ($750) for each of the songs. I'm so happy I hired Steven to represent me in this extremely stressful lawsuit. He always quickly returned emails and even kept me on schedule when I procrastinated. When UMG took months and month to answer, Steven kept me up to date with quick emails that he didn't charge me for. I really appreciated how professional he was through the whole process. I felt that his fees were very fair and I would hire him again if needed.

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.
