The Life of a Hollywood Attorney
- This event has passed.
Stanford Law alumni Lucy Popkin and Will Jacobson join us for a conversation about their careers as leading entertainment talent attorneys. As partners at Goodman Genow Schenkman Smelkinson + Christopher, LLP, a boutique talent firm in Beverly Hills, they represent high-profile artists, creators, and industry professionals in complex negotiations across film, television, and digital media.
Lucy Popkin was named by The Hollywood Reporter as one of New York’s Power Lawyers in 2024 and, in 2025, one of Hollywood’s Top 100 Attorneys. Will Jacobson was recognized by The Hollywood Reporter in 2025 as one of the “Influencer” lawyers who have top creators’ backs.
They will discuss how they make deals happen for their clients, their individual areas of specialization, and their paths to partnership in the competitive world of talent-side entertainment law.
