Pryor Cashman Senior Entertainment Partner Howard Siegel will be moderating a panel discussion as part of the New York State Bar Association’s Entertainment Business Law Seminar taking place at the CMJ Music Marathon & Film Festival 2009.

The seminar is entitled Ethical Negotiation Practices. Negotiating deals is a large part of the entertainment business and attorneys representing their clients are bound by the New York Rules of Professional Conduct. In navigating the tricky paths of negotiation, what information are attorneys bound to keep confidential? How forthright must an attorney be with opposing counsel? And when does puffery cross the ethical line? This panel will explore these issues through a step-by-step mock negotiation that will examine the good side and the dark side of doing deals in the entertainment industry. 

The seminar will be held from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m. on Friday, October 23, 2009 at the Helen and Martin Kimmel Center for University Life, New York University, 60 Washington Square South in the Richard L. Rosenthal Pavilion on the 10th floor.
