Entertainment Attorney, Contracts, Negotiations, Civil matters
Entertainment Law in New York City
For ten years Ms. Anderson-Bedford has represented clients in the music, sports and film industry, representing both individuals as well as companies. She has found that some individuals seeking her expert advice are up and coming artists with new record or film deals or management or talent agency contracts. While media companies are generally well established and budget to hire attorneys to represent their interests, struggling artists are usually not in a good enough financial position to hire a lawyer to protect their interests. Without an advocate to represent their interests, they sign contracts without professional review, often to their detriment.
Charlotte Anderson-Bedford understands and has compassion for the plight of the new artist. For Qualifying New Artists Only Ms. Anderson-Bedford offers a contract review and advisement service. In most cases this limited service does not require a retainer and is accomplished with the payment of a flat fee. This limited service includes a legal review of the contract's terms, written comments expressing Ms. Anderson-Bedford's legal opinion and expertise and tips for negotiating the contract on your own.
Charlotte Anderson-Bedford began her legal career as an insurance defense litigator. In addition to her litigation background she maintains a private Civil practice with a major concentration in Entertainment Law. She also handles various other civil matters (wills, uncontested divorces) and has been an Arbitrator presiding over Bronx County Small Claims Court matters, many that were related to contract disputes. Her litigation and Small Claims experience helped fine tune her negotiation skills as well as her ability to spot those potential contractual issues that could lead to future litigation. This background has tremendously helped Ms. Anderson-Bedford with her representation, contract review and negotiations on behalf of her entertainment clients.
