Hello, thanks for tuning into Intangible Assets, a podcast by the Intellectual Property Law Section of the California Lawyers Association. I’m your host, David Lizerbram.

The California Lawyers Association is the bar association for all California attorneys. Our mission is to promote excellence, diversity and inclusion in the legal profession and fairness in the administration of justice and the rule of law.

In this episode, I’ll be talking to Daniel Schacht of Donahue Fitzgerald LLP. Daniel heads the firm’s Music and Entertainment practice and co-chairs the Intellectual Property Practice Group. He also regularly teaches Music Law at his alma mater, U.C. Berkeley School of Law and provides California Lawyers for the Arts with pro bono services and seminars on the law and business of music. We talk about his background as a professional musician, his transition to the law, and what to look out for when your client is entering into an agreement with a licensing agent.

The Annual IP Institute for 2020 has pivoted to become a Virtual Annual Meeting, held on September 24-26, 2020.

Our flagship program will return live and in person to the California coast on October 28-30, 2021 at the Laguna Cliffs Resort & Spa.

We have several MCLE webinars coming up soon, including one on Regaining Focus and Avoiding Lawyer Burnout.
