The People

Founder-led.
Named, and accountable.

Representation worldwide  ·  By appointment

You should know who is answerable for your work before you hand it over, and be able to reach them. Below is the founder the practice runs under, and then the six areas of work that carry a career day to day.

Principals

Leadership, by name.

The house is led by its founder, an attorney and business leader, and he is accountable to you by name rather than through a desk.

Operations

Six areas of work, and who answers for each.

These are the six things a career actually needs carrying for it. Each runs under attorney supervision, and each is measured against the commitments published on the Maison Standard rather than against how busy it looks.

Counsel & Business Affairs

Contract review, rights protection, exclusivity and non-compete negotiation, royalty audit, IP and likeness structuring, estate coordination. Counsel-guided and documented across every engagement.

Booking & Coordination

Casting replies, your schedule, your travel and your wardrobe, and the call sheet read before you get on a plane. Whoever is producing deals with one person here.

Deal Pipeline

Brand approaches that arrive for you, sorted and answered, and the selections we put together in response. We keep those relationships going between deals as well as in the weeks when something is being signed.

Accounting & Statements

Your Friday statement, the monthly and quarterly summaries behind it, the commission worked out on every booking, and the separate account your money sits in. Your own accountant gets what they need from us at tax time.

Documents & Compliance

Your engagement letters, IP registrations, company paperwork, tax forms, insurance and union documentation. All of it tracked to its expiry date, so you are warned before something lapses rather than after.

Publicity & Press

What gets said about you and who says it, the placements we record on your behalf, the Maison Briefs, and the checks that let anyone confirm a message really came from us.

On naming

A house is only as accountable as the people it names.

More principals and senior staff appear here as they join, under their own consent, and not before. If you are wondering why this page is short, that is why: the house does not publish aspirational rosters, and you should be suspicious of any that does.
