"The Essential Guide to Entertainment Law is just that -- and is worth its weight in gold."

"Drawing on their extensive experience as long-term entertainment tax lawyers, Brad and Shane have created a comprehensive summary of the important issues my clients need resolved. They provide great insight into the goals and challenges of estate and tax planning for those in the entertainment industry and how to achieve the best results for their businesses."

Robert Blashek, Esq.
Tax Partner, O'Melveny & Myers

"Steve Monas is one of the top lawyers in the independent film distribution business, and he has brought his thirty-plus years of experience to bear in his chapter on Motion Picture distribution. Clear and concise, practical and interesting, filled with practical tips derived from actual sample agreements, this chapter will be of use to practitioners interested in developing expertise in these types of transactions, and even experienced attorneys will find it informative. It is so well-written that I plan to assign it to my motion picture seminar students, as soon as available."

Jay Dougherty
Professor of Law & Director, Entertainment/Media Law Institute & Concentration Program Loyola Law School (Los Angeles)

"Having spent my legal career tackling many of the topics addressed by these volumes, I can’t think of a more comprehensive Entertainment Industry legal reference to keep within reach of my desk – or yours."

Michael Sinder
