Informed Passionate Caring

In a word : excellent – Gary is everything that you could hope for when searching for an entertainment attorney who is both knowledgeable, and sincerely caring. I first met Gary over 10 years ago when was in need of setting up a production deal with the top television production company. Every s...tep of the way he followed up, was transparent, and insured that contracts were carefully reviewed, approved, and negotiated.

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.
