PLEASE VISIT MY WEBSITE: .  Please also note that I wrote my memoir: NOT ONE OF THE BOYS: LIVING LIFE AS A FEMINIST, that was published by Knopf in 2000.  I also produced the movie "NAVY SEALS" for Orion Pictures in 1990.  I have most recently been writing and blogging about same-sex marriage which you can read on .  The reason that I now represent employers, as well as employees, in discrimination matters is that I've been burned too often by "professional" plaintiffs who virtually make up allegations of discrimination by employers.  I try to weed those out and recently have also been using a private investigative agency for all matters that call for it. My experience is vast and I love working with smart clients!

Firm: Berra Connelly LLP

5806 Waring Ave. , Los Angeles , California 90038

Practice Areas: Business , Defamation, Libel and Slander, Entertainment & Sports , Entertainment, Entertainment

I negotiate all types of deals in the entertainment industry pertaining to film, television, digital distribution of content, literary publications, music, music publishing and more.  I also negotiate traditional business agreements (partnerships, joint ventures, etc.), register and advise on copyrights and advise on and prosecute trademark applications.. I began my career as an entertainment litigator at Kulik, Gottesman & Mouton, LLP  in 2001 and continued that practice at Lavely & Singer, PC from 2003-2010 where I represented high-profile celebrities in trials, arbitrations, and labor commisisoner hearings.  My extensive background in litigating breaches of contract, fraud, unfair business practices, libel, slander, right of publicity and privacy violations, wrongful termination claims and copyright and trademark infringment makes me uniquely qualified to negotiate entertainment and related business transactions. Who better to put the details of a deal together then someone who spent years litigating over deals that fell apart due to poor drafting, vague language, oversights and the like?. PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING ABOUT MY PRACTICE:. I do not shop or seek financing for projects/music/scripts or help find clients representation (agents, managers, etc.).  I work for the majority of my clients on an hourly basis.  Hourly clients are required to pay a retainer before legal services commence.  I do represent some clients on a percentage basis but only if the agreement at issue provides a substantial and guaranteed payment to the client.  I do not negotiate option agreements or development agreements on a percentage basis.. Finally, while I'm strictly a transactional attorney, if you have an entertainment or business litigation matter I can refer you to my partner, Paul Berra, who is a very experienced entertainment litigator.  Mr. Berra works only on an hourly basis.

Practice Areas: Entertainment

I have a broad base of experience that allows me the ability to handle a multiplicity of matters in diverse areas, including, bankruptcy, civil litigation, real estate, entertainment, trademarks, copyright, and corporate law and family law. I started as a mergers and acquisitions attorney and worked in two prestigious New York law firms on sophisticated corporate matters. I was transferred to Japan in 1990 to staff the Tokyo office of Paul, Weiss, because I speak Japanese, at which point I got the entertainment bug from representing some Japanese artists as an avocation and my aspirations to be a stand up comedy in Japan since I am very funny in Japanese only. After working in Japan, I returned to the United States where I pursued my interests in music, starting a national booking agency and management company and ultimately partnering with David Braun, Esq., who was the former president of Polygram Records. At some point thereafter, I went out on my own and my clients were primarily recording artists who were disenfranchised with Death Row REcords. I developed a robust entertainment law practice, began suing record companies, and began handling the bankruptcies for my clients, which we used as strategic tools as well as for practical reasons.  My artists and their referrals also enlisted my support in a number of lawsuits. When the real estate crisis hit in CA, I became a foreclosure law expert and routinely handle cases that are best characterized as both pre-foreclosure, post foreclosure and  eviction matters. There isn't much I don't do, haven't done or can't handle. I am also special counsel to Bankruptcy Trustee, Alfred Siegel.
