I had the pleasure of taking a seminar taught by Nick at Seattle University School of Law. He is extremely knowledgable in IP licensing, and I would not hesitate to seek his advice in this practice area.

I highly recommend Nick Mitchell to artists and business people with IP needs. Nick is also a tough negotiator with a long history in the gaming and arts industries. For advice or for advocacy, I recommend Nick Mitchell.
