Legal 500 Editorial commentary
Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
- 'Reed Smith's media and entertainment transactional practice stands out for the depth of industry knowledge the attorneys bring to every engagement. They understand the law, of course, but crucially they appreciate the business side of the equation. This appreciation makes them genuinely useful partners rather than just outside counsel executing instructions.'
- 'Sarah Bruno and John Feldman are a genuinely effective pairing. Both bring deep expertise in marketing, advertising, and promotions - a more specialized corner of M&E transactional work than it might appear - and together they produce work product that is, crucially, actionable.'
