Attention to detail, wonderful at explainign the importnace of each document from Development to Post Production.

Margaret Marr has been our Production attorney for several projects. Whether we are producing a film or TV show Margaret has provided wise council in a timely manner. She is efficient and thorough and is never condescending. We will continue to go to Margaret for all our Entertainment legal needs.

Extremely Knowledgable & Excellent at Explaining Everything Clearly

I've used Margaret several times to both review publishing contracts as well as craft intellectual property contracts and a non-disclosure agreement. She always provides concise, clear explanations of every document as well as gets on the phone to discuss any modifications or questions. She frequentl...y goes above and beyond my expectations and often completes her reviews/preparations before the promised date.

NDR and Subcontractor Contract

Maggie Marr is thorough, punctual, and a pleasure to work with. She gets the industry and provides invaluable advice. I'd go to her with any of my publishing contract needs.

Really Works for Her Clients

As an author herself, Maggie Marr knows exactly what her clients need. She's worked up several contracts for me, always making sure I understood what each provision meant. When I'm being dense, she patiently explains the law in an accessible way. In my experience, her client's protection and satisfac...tion are of the utmost importance to Maggie. I've recommended her many times to other authors and will continue to do so.

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.
