“When I was a band manager, my job was to handle the band’s business so they could focus on making music. Now, I handle our creative clients’ legal concerns so they can focus on being creative.”
LIVE WEBINAR / April 9th, 2026 / 1:30pm MST
With a portfolio of clients who are not only traditional artists, but also creative individuals and entities, Dave advises both creative and general business clients on all aspects of intellectual property – copyrights, trademarks, trade names, trade dress, trade secrets – and business law. Dave applies his skills to help general business clients execute their plans, negotiate their deals, protect their interests, and achieve their goals.
Dave works with all members of the creative community, including:
Film Makers
Video Production Companies

Musicians, Bands, Singers, and Songwriters

And anyone else who considers their work creative!
