Why Choose Us: All entertainment law firms claim expertise and quality service. But only we offer: Breadth and Depth of Expertise: 25 years experience as a top lawyer and studio executive, representing all sides to any deal — producers, writers, directors, production companies, distributors, studios, banks, film funds, borrowers and insurers. Unlike attorneys who only represent talent or producers, understanding all parties' real needs enables us to craft solutions that get projects done and help maintain positive working relationships. Flexible Tailoring: As a solo practitioner, Peter Levitan can tailor services to meet your individual needs — whether you're a production company financing a $100 million slate of films or a writer optioning your first script. This also includes offering a variety of fee arrangements to meet your budget and situation, from traditional hourly billing to flat fees, partial contingent fees and blended arrangements for certain services. Individual Attention: Other lawyers and law firms claim it, but with a global industry and a global practice, we're available 24/7 when you need us. If you have a problem while shooting on location in London, or while meeting with an investor in New York or Sydney, we're available when you need us. Business and Career Guidance: A solo practitioner with a lean operation, Peter Levitan can also take time to offer you astute business and career guidance, as well as legal advice. Other attorneys typically can't afford to take time for this additional attention.

The entertainment industry is a complex fusion of creativity and business. This makes entertainment projects highly collaborative. In such an environment, we've found that our "win-win" philosophy is the best strategy for obtaining optimal results in the long term — both on the project at hand and in establishing positive working relationships for overall career growth. Based on the classic "Getting to Yes: Negotiating Agreement Without Giving In", it starts with each party understanding the other's real needs and concerns, rather than taking inflexible negotiating positions. This approach results in creative, sensible business solutions that get each one what he or she values most. Most important, it leaves both parties feeling that the resolution and the other party is fair and reasonable — and looking forward to working together again. |
