Peter is exceptional. I'm a 21 year old content creator with 2.5 million social media followers who was stuck in an exclusive talent agency contract that was not working in my favor. I felt completely trapped with no way out. Peter responded to my inquiry within hours, gave me a clear flat fee upfro nt with no games, and sent over an engagement letter the same day. He took the time to thoroughly review everything I provided and crafted a precise, well researched termination letter. Within hours of that letter being sent I was officially released from the contract without any pushback. What impressed me most was his honesty and directness. He never overpromised, told me upfront he couldn't guarantee results, and then delivered a result that exceeded every expectation. He also gave me genuinely valuable advice about protecting myself in future contracts. If you are an artist, creator, or talent dealing with a contract issue or any entertainment law matter in Chicago, Peter is the one to call. I cannot recommend him enough.
