Hello everyone,I know many factors can determine the fees you pay an attorney but for those who deal with an entertainment attorney for contract reviews and such things, would you say that $350 an hour is a fair compensation level?I am in need of finding someone new and would like to find someone with specific experience in library contracts but, based on previous experience, that kind of hourly rate seemed excessive to me but then again, I may be wrong. Thanks,Antonio

Hi Antonio:It depends - my attorney charges less, but I don't know how good he'll be for you and your needs. Send me a PM and I can give you my guy's info if you want to discuss...

In my rather limited experience, an attorney that charges less than $250/hr isn't worth a nickel. (but you need to be extremely explicit as to what sort of law you want her to practice)

If you're in CA, the California Lawyers for the Arts organization offers significantly discounted services.
