Ms. Ward provided the expertise that we needed to make decisions on signing a contract for the first time in the entertainment industry. She took the time to answer all of our questions and added the items that could be a problem in the future.

One thing i would like to comment on is her incredible response time. Carrie certainly excels in this area. I can only imagine with her workload how busy she must be but every time i have needed to reach her she makes herself available to respond back to me. I will continue to use her for all legal matters as communication is very key with me. She has been an absolute blessing to work with and has been handling our matters with the utmost professionalism and drive .
