Biography
Hi potential client!
I am both an artist and a lawyer. For years, I was a trial lawyer on one hand, and a musican and actor on the other. When I started a law practice about three years ago in February 2016, I was not sure exactly what area I would work in. I quickly gravtiated to entertainment law, and from there, music law. I now have a practice I love, representing artists and companies in the music business. I pride myself on getting the deal to "yes."
My motto is: Protecting you. Promoting you.® I work hard to protect artists from the dangers of the music industry, and at the same time I do all I can do to promote them in the industry.
There's a saying in the Canadian province of Labrador, where polar bears dwell, "Always keep a dog in your tent." They have a dog to warn them of an oncoming polar bear so they can fend them off rather than become the bear's breakfast. The music business can also be a trecherous place, where you, too, should maybe keep a dog in your tent.
I'm the dog.
Call me for more information. I will look forward to hearing from you.
Best, Ned

Never had someone fight this hard for me
I was walking into a complicated contracted with a label when I get as introduced to Ned. He holds his ground and gets what you want. Walked away very confident in the deal I signed after he negotiated it. Also a very personal guy. Couldn’t recommend more.
