Can anyone recommend a gay or gay friendly attorney for adult sites?

[Marc]

I dont NEED one right now, but I will soon to look over things for first ammendment stuff and 2257 docs.

I worked with one very popular adult entertainment attorney and he was a nice guy but I got the impression that because my site is gay, that he kept putting off looking at it.

It ended up taking him 4 months to "get around" to reviewing my site. Obviously because he didnt want to look at pictures and movies of gay porn. It was like asking him to go to the dentist or something, so id rather have someone who doesn't think of it as an issue.

Any recommendations?

Hit me up on email back to toyboy@curiouscash.com or ICQ #293070684, gmmtoyboy@hotmail.com on MSN, GMM Toy Boy on AOL or gmmtoyboy on Yahoo.

I'll give you a referral to one of our US lawyers.

He is gay, he is young, motivated and excellent value, he is net savvy and is an ex-District Attorney.

He is also excellent on offshore and general corporate structuring.

Anyone else who wants a referral, hit me up also.

I received email about a gay attorney based in Phoenix who is now posting on the boards. Very savvy about 2257. I can dig up the email if you need it.

Hey Guys. ive been looking for the same thing myself. I was going to try and find one here in La but you can actually consult with a lawyer over the net and not be in the same town? Don't know why im surprised. I guess I figured you had to meet in his office but of coures no need for that anymore. Anyway just in case anyone know of any in Los Angeles?

all the attorneys i've "met" with have been over the phone. after initial email contact, they are paid by paypal or credit card and do phone consulations.

I met Chad during the Hollywood InterNext show this summer and he's a new member here to the community and had done some posteing recently.

He can be contacted at:

FAX 480-649-7320

We already had legal represenation so I can't say that I have retained his services but I can say he's knowledegable, appears up to speed on the issues affecting our industry and he's one hell of a nice guy too

Thanks, Harlan and Lindsay, for the glowing recommendations!

I live in Arizona now and have a pretty good background as a lawyer--serving as an elected prosecutor for 4 years is an intense experiece. Plus, I am Ripped-the-closet-doors-off-never-going-back-in-there-again out of the closet gay. However, when I visited a bathhouse for a consultation with the owner [yeah, THAT time it was for work ;-) ] the assistant manager first thought I was straight. Go figure.

My clients believe I do good work, I stay in contact and get projects done on time. My rates are very reasonable and easy to understand. I am at chadwickaz@yahoo.com or cbelville@azbar.org if you want to talk to me directly.


I'll be at the gay webmasters party in West Hollywood October 1st, BTW.

Thanks again guys, for the good words!

Yep, Chad is the one I received email about, apparently my sister met him on another board and had glowing things to say about him. She sent me his contact info which I lost of course
