Joshua M. Biletsky is committed to providing exceptional legal services to clients in the entertainment industry and to businesses in any stage of their development.
During law school, Joshua interned at Warner/Chappell Music, one of the world’s largest music publishers. At Warner/Chappell, Joshua gained knowledge and experience in drafting and reviewing publishing agreements and researching international copyright laws. Joshua also worked on legendary artists’ files such as James Brown, the Gershwin Brothers, and many other prolific artists. After passing the California bar, Joshua worked as a commercial and theatrical agent at an across-the-board talent agency. This gave Joshua a unique background in SAG contracts as well as knowledge of movies, television, commercials, print, music video, and new media formats. Joshua has represented talent of all ages from toddlers to actors in their 90’s.
Joshua has experience with drafting and negotiating contracts across a wide range of different businesses and entertainment industries. Recently, Joshua has worked in a real estate law firm where he mastered the art of managing a heavy caseload of clients and defended the rights of homeowners against corporate lenders. Joshua now takes this experience with him to defend the artists and entrepreneurs against those who attempt to infringe upon their work.
Joshua grew up in Las Vegas, Nevada and moved to California to attend law school. Joshua graduated from Southwestern School of Law in Los Angeles and received his Bachelor of Arts in Sociology from the University of Arizona in Tucson, Arizona.

I have known Mr. Biletsky for many years and I can attest to his honesty and zealousness to help his clients. Mr. Biletsky was kind enough to offer me a consultation about my business. He is very informative and knowledgable in the field of Entertainment and he directed me to many great sources which I still find useful. I highly recommend Mr. Biletsky for any entertainment matter.
