Hollywood Reporter Names its '100 Power Lawyers'
Looking for help turning that novel of yours into a movie? Think that new reality TV series sounds suspiciously like the idea you pitched to the network last year?
Then you’re in luck. The Hollywood Reporter’s 2010 list of 100 Power Lawyers in Entertainment is out.
The complete list includes only outside, private practice attorneys in such specialties as talent, litigation, corporate dealmaking and labor. It does not include in-house studio, network or music-label executives, guild or agency lawyers, professors or attorneys from outside the United States.
To compile the list, its fourth, magazine staffers say they researched the biggest deals and lawsuits of the year in film, television and music.
Ten of the 100 lawyers on the list hailed from Los Angeles-based Ziffren Brittenham, including name partners Skip Brittenham and Ken Ziffren.
