Mitra handled a case for me with speed and clarity. There was a claimed force majeure that was in fact false. She was quick, professional and thorough in the handling of difficult and complicated threads of information during murky covid times. I cannot recommend her high enough to other performant artist colleagues!

In the past, finding an attorney who was a master strategist and negotiator, who was firm yet classy, who never lost their cool and would help build my business, protect my IP, my status as producer and my financial well-being, felt like an exercise in frustration. Until I met Mitra Ahouraian. A highly respected thought leader in her field, Mitra’s smarts, style, strategy, integrity and charming personality are second to none. She has my respect, trust and gratitude. If you and your project deserve world class legal representation, the best possible outcome and an experience that reflects well on you, seek out Mitra Ahouraian. ~ Gary W.

We were referred to Mitra as an entertainment attorney when a TV opportunity came out of the clear blue. She quickly responded to our emails, provided valuable feedback and suggestions on our contract to ensure our interests were protected, while providing reassurance throughout the entire stressful process. We now have a fully executed contract that we feel protected with and compensated fairly. Thank you, Mitra, for your professionalism, tenacity and quick turn-around time!

I've been an entertainment industry professional in Los Angeles for 15 years. Previously, I was repped by a large, well-known entertainment law firm. But I never felt like I was getting much more there than their fancy name on the letterhead. There were times in the past when I felt like I knew the ins and outs of the WGA MBA better than my attorney did. That's not a feeling that inspires confidence. Cut to Ms. Ahouraian... Recently, I was in need of a new attorney to take care of an option/purchase agreement. I asked a great attorney friend of mine for a recommendation (he only does litigation) and he referred me to Mitra Ahouraian. I'm very thankful that he did. Unlike some clients, I really read my contracts. I ask questions. I have opinions. Honestly, part of me probably wishes I'd been an attorney, but I settled for the artistic (and lower paid) life of a writer/producer. Bottom line: I like to think I know when an attorney is really smart and putting in an effort, and when they're just phoning it in (or handing the work off to an underling). Mitra is everything I want in an attorney. She's smart, reasonably fast on turnaround (without rushing it), and available for communication; all while projecting professionalism at every step (always a plus when the other side is looking for any sign of weakness). I've just finished a second deal with her and my impression remains the same (if not more so). Barring anything unforeseen, I feel like I've now found an attorney I can stick with the rest of my career. For those of you who are not fortunate enough to get a personal referral as I was, let this be your reassurance. (I'm withholding my first name because it's not that common and I don't want you internet dwellers to know who I am).

A few weeks ago I was in a bind and needed an entertainment attorney immediately. Mitra was recommended to me and within minutes of calling her she sprang into action and worked tirelessly to ensure that I was appropriately represented. Now, a few weeks later, I finally signed a contract I am very happy with - one that protects me, my family, and my career. Mitra was very easy to work with and kept me informed throughout the entire process. I am still in awe with how much she was able to accomplish in such little time. I am new the entertainment industry and Mitra made this experience as easy as it could be. My wife and I would not have survived without her!

Mitra Ahouraian is an excellent attorney that understands the law. She advised and informed me with the issues of my case and followed through with things in the most professional manner.
