Zehra Jennifer Abdi

I recently started my own record label production company in NYC focused on working with independent artists and providing an infrastructure needed to produce quality content and performance. Zehra came in to consult on the final production of an one of our artists albums, which used a number of samp...les, and proceeded to get the proper licensing set up for us. We obtained the mechanical license for each sample used, but we hadn’t obtained the Master Use License or the Sync License. Zehra was not only able to guide us through this process of properly licensing each song, she was patient and kind, and explained to us many of the legal nuances in a way that was incredibly comprehensive and not condescending!

After years of several horrendous experiences with incompetent lawyers, I ultimately found a lawyer I trust. Zehra is a consummate professional. Her expertise and knowledge of the law as well as her compassion for her clients makes this lawyer the best in the tri-state (I’ve had numerous). She is per...sonable, generous with her time, thorough, and highly responsive to her clients’ needs, concerns, and issues. I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know her personally through the course of our work relationship and she’s just as devoted, brilliant, and benevolent as she is professionally. If you are looking for a conscientious, sharp, ethical, and tenacious lawyer, LOOK NO FURTHER! I highly recommend her and have already referred her to my friends and family. I look forward to continuing working with her in all my future business endeavors!

Having worked with Abdi for almost a decade, I can confidently say she has saved me considerably more money and stress than I’ve spent. As a creative and businessman, Abdi has protected and guided me through multiple ventures here in the States and with overseas dealings. She has guided me not just t...hrough legal matters but as a business advisor as well. I can say with confidence that Abdi has earned my trust and respect, and I will be using her services for a long time to come.
