Creative Work Is Built In Relationships.

Your Lawyers Should Understand That.

Your gallery represents multiple artists whose work overlaps. Your label negotiates with producers who collaborate across your roster. Your museum depends on donor relationships that extend beyond exhibitions. You're not conducting isolated transactions—you're operating within creative ecosystems where the same people and institutions keep intersecting.

We bring PhD-level art history expertise, museum operations experience, and Fortune 500 legal training to creative businesses that need sophisticated counsel without corporate overhead. We understand how artists communicate, how galleries and labels operate, and how to structure agreements that account for ecosystem dynamics most attorneys miss entirely.
