I’ve been working with Byron Pascoe while I complete my first feature documentary, and he has been a complete wealth of information and expertise — not only with respect to legal advice, but also important contacts in both the film and music industries. I highly recommend working with Byron and his team!

Edwards Creative Law was very patient and understanding throughout my entire Incorporation process. I appreciate the professionalism and courtesy that the team here showed me along the way. There was a whole lot that I did not know and and that HAD to be quite difficult or tiresome but it never felt that way. There were NO biased undertones, no dismissiveness and no condescending of any nature; just immaculate professionalism. I’m the proud owner of an Animation & Gaming Corporation, thanks to them.
