Bryan is a true professional !!!

I had an issue with sales agent for my feature film, the agent disappeared on me and i didn't know what to do. Thank god for Bryan consulting me on this situation, he explained to me what usually happens, advised me on what can be done, helped me with an official letter to my flaky agent and now i go...t a hold of him and the issue is solved! Not only Bryan is very professional and knowledgeable, he is also a kind person who cares. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I will use Bryan for all future deals

I'm an actress and was referred to Bryan Duran by another actor he recently helped guide and negotiate through a major studio movie contract. I found myself needing a lawyer to look over a new talent manager contract I was presented, and was so relived he was sent my way. Bryan helped me understand t...he fine print, made me aware of what was standard for these types of contracts, and what clauses I should reject, and had a plethora of information. Not only was he incredibly helpful and kind, he got back to me extremely quick when he knew I was in a time pinch- and didn't charge me an arm and a leg. This combination of intelligence and kindness is hard to find, and I will definitely be coming to him in the future when I have my studio deal to negotiate. Thanks so much, Bryan!

Amazing.

Trust is one of the most important aspects of any relationship. And Bryan and I have a developed a strong friendship and business relationship based on the foundation of trust. He's helped educate me through the entire process of this business. He's always looked out for my best interest and has alwa...ys been willing to go the extra mile to ensure that everything is in order. He's helped me negotiate deals as well as close deals. He's such a great person to work with.
