Apollo Sports & Entertainment Law Group

We hired Melinda and her team at Apollo to handle the contract for our book deal with a major publisher. We were very impressed with their knowledge, expertise and the way they handled all of the communications with the publisher - and with us. Our contract did a virtual 180 and ended up significantly more in our favor. They negotiated things we would never have even thought of. We were recommended to Melinda by a colleague who said she was the best in the business... and in our experience, she most certainly is. We have no hesitation in recommending Apollo Sports & Entertainment and we will definitely use their services again in the future, as needed.

During my time working with Melinda, the communication was terrific. She's certainly "Clever, Creative and Connected", true to the brand of Apollo Law Group. In retrospect, it's evident as to why she's keyed into major players of the entertainment and sports industry: she meets the high standards of excellence that A-listers demand. In every industry, the most innovative thought leaders take an interdisciplinary approach to their services. Apollo Law Group does this in combining business and law expertise. In this way, Melinda is able to embody the minds of two separate, high caliber professionals, in one person. This allows her to be the critical go-to person to solve an array of challenges and problems that may arise on the fly. Moreover, every business person wants an attorney who will figure out creative ways to accomplish goals, legally, rather than shut down potential ideas with red tape. In industries as creative as the entertainment industry, such a "can do" legal perspective is vital and makes Apollo stand about the other few firms that occupy the sports and entertainment law space.

Melinda and her team are unique in that they combine real life entertainment and business experience with legal know how. They are quick to understand the nuances of a situation and respond with practical and executable tactics. We've worked with Melinda on domestic and international strategies, business structure and IP.

Melinda is the best in her craft. She is thoughtful, hard working and a ferocious advocate on behalf of her clients.

I have worked with Melinda and her team on several projects over the past few years. She is an expert in sports and entertainment law and I highly recommend her.
