Lee Knife Law


Music Business and IP Law
30+ years practicing copyright and IP law and in the music, media and entertainment world, as well as providing General Counsel services to many established and start-up companies. A true, forward-thinking IP and technology lawyer.
The newest wave of creators isn’t holding guitars or cameras — they’re AI models, trained on and remixing datasets and using that data to venture forth into legal gray zones that no one could’ve imagined in 1995.
I’m working with early-stage and growth-stage companies in AI, creative tech, and media platforms, helping them think strategically about:
• Copyright + licensing for AI-generated content
• Rights management around audio, video, and name and likeness
• Litigation, takedowns, and risk exposure
• Structuring your IP policies the right way, from day one
If you’re building in this space — or investing in it — and want experienced legal perspective, we should talk.
I’m available for fractional roles, project-based work, and strategic advisory.
Everyone needs a steady hand in this new landscape.
