Testimonials

  • Very nice and caring, smart gentleman. He helped me out with advice regarding a hazardous situation with my baby. Everywhere I go my baby gets compliments and when he makes it big, I will be sure to have Mr. Finkel be our Entertainment Lawyer as well… :)

  • Harry Finkel did truly outstanding work for our organization. Each issue he has handled has required substantial background research, consultation, and thoughtful consideration of crucial fine points. He went above and beyond to provide detailed findings, exercised a well-developed ability to listen at depth as well as deliver feedback in a very articulate, level manner, and he offered wise counsel as to potential outcomes of decisions for the near and long terms. Harry’s warm, calm demeanor make understanding the legal ramifications of a situation into a very enjoyable and fascinating experience. I recommend him for anyone seeking clear, thorough, thoughtful and positive legal assistance.

  • I am a filmmaker, screenwriter, as well as run a production company and have used his legal services to draft and review both partnership and option agreements, review contracts, consult on my financial and business strategy specific to my industry, as well as discuss the Pros and Cons and legal ramifications of taking specific courses of action.He has a keen ability to dissect an issue and explain your options in an easy to comprehend and digestible way. Mr. Finkel doesn’t sugar coat, he will tell you how it is and outline your course of action. I have found his honesty refreshing and beneficial. Thus far, he has provided exactly what he said he was going to do . He hasn’t over-promised nor under-delivered.

  • My partner and I sold our screenplay earlier this year to a small studio based out of LA. We couldn’t afford to keep flying back and forth from NY to LA and needed someone to handle our legal affairs with the studio. After a recommendation by a close friend who went to college with Harry we called asking him for help. It’s been 6 months since we have used his services and everything has been handled terrifically. Also, his prices compared to most LA based lawyers we spoke to before meeting him are much lower and the work was very thorough. If you need someone I’d definitely say give this one a call.

  • Harry Finkel met me to discuss an entertainment project of mine which has a lot of copyright and intellectual property issues. He gave me a 1/2 hr to introduce my project and to assess the case on his own behalf. He gave me excellent advice and it is clear that he is a professional in his area who knows what he is talking about. I can only recommend to work with. Thank you Harry this was great!
