 AN ATTORNEYS SPECIAL
     “This is truly an extra- ordinary moment
in the history of the music industry,” notes
John Frankenheimer, Chair of Loeb & Loeb’s Music Industry practice. “Music is ubiquitous in our culture, art and social inter- action, and the current recogni- tion of the value of music-based intellectual property finally reflects that impact. We believe we are uniquely positioned to serve our clients and the industry as a whole in this moment.”
Loeb’s Music practice has consistently been recognized
as the premier music-industry practice, once again earning the title of Law Firm of the Year in the Entertainment Law – Music
  category in the 2021 edition of U.S. News – Best Lawyers’ Best Law Firms rankings. This is the fifth year the firm has earned the title since the ranking’s inception in 2012.
In addition to the 18 trans- actional attorneys at the core of Loeb’s Music practice, a full complement of lawyers from across the firm, including from the Corporate, Litigation, Intel- lectual Property, Brand Pro- tection, Tax, Advertising & Media, Technology and Trusts & Estates groups regularly col- laborate to service client needs.
“We are fortunate to have a diverse and experienced group of partners at the core of this practice, including our Vice
   John Frankenheimer
Debbie White
Chair, Debbie White, and Ken Kraus, Channing Johnson, Scott Zolke, Barry Slotnick and Rebel Steiner,” notes Frankenheimer. “And with
the range of legal, business and practical knowledge and expe- rience from the rest of Loeb behind us, we truly excel at keeping pace with our clients’ growth and ambitions, whether they are emerging talent, new companies or established cli- ents with sophisticated expan- sion plans.”
Loeb is particularly proud
of the continued growth and success of the firm’s Nashville office. Twenty-five years after first opening the office in Music City, the firm brought in Derek Crownover and his team. Under the local leadership of Crownover, Tiffany Dunn
and Denise Stevens, and with Loeb’s collaborative national approach, Loeb’s Nashville group has exceeded all expecta- tions, building a juggernaut for the representation of creative talent, established and emerg- ing companies and a wide array of financial participants. In addition, as White notes, “It is particularly gratifying that we continue to develop great young lawyers like Danny Silverman, Farah Usmani and Nathan Drake, who we know will con- tinue to build on our tradition of superlative client service to the industry.”
