Welcome to My Blog!

This blog will cover law, showbiz, publishing, and more. I want to entertain and inform you, and hopefully keep you from making any unnecessary mistakes. And since you’re most likely wondering what gives me the right to take up your time with my writing, here are my credentials.

In addition to having law degree, I am a member of the stage, film and TV actor unions (AEA and SAG-AFTRA) and have been for decades. I’ve appeared on the New York stage and regionally. I’ve done TV, commercials, print ads in newspapers and national magazines, and major motion pictures. I’ve produced independent films and off-Broadway plays. I’ve performed in several professional music groups and worked in recording studios. I’ve also appeared in live radio productions and have even been the voice talent in an exhibition at Philadelphia’s National Constitution Center.

I’ve managed and agented NY Times Bestselling authors, negotiating lucrative publishing deals with major publishers. As an attorney, I currently represent authors, actors, film-makers, and other creative types including an Oscar nominated documentary producer. I’ve lectured and appeared at numerous events from New York City, Dallas and Chicago, to Los Angeles and Seattle. Even Geneva Switzerland! I’ve been dipped deeply into the turbulent and exciting waters of showbiz.

I also have spent a significant amount of time in trial and appellate courts all over Pennsylvania, Massachusetts and New York. I’ve handled a wide variety of criminal cases. I’ve helped people deal with stupid mistakes, keeping some people out of jail and prevented others from getting deported for low-level crimes from years ago.

I’ve helped small business people grow their businesses. I’ve kept them from being taken advantage of by protecting their intellectual property and even assisted them in walking away from very bad deals.

Through these blog posts, I will do my best to share my experiences and thoughts on these subjects and more. Feel free to let me know your thoughts and thanks in advance for your support!
