Wilson Sonsini partner Gary Greenstein has been named among Billboard’s 2022 Top Music Lawyers, marking the sixth consecutive year he has received this recognition.
As in previous years, Gary was honored in the Talent and Litigation category. The accompanying profile references Gary’s experience advising clients on the digital exploitation of intellectual property, and his recent cases, including representing Google before the Copyright Royalty Board in the Phonorecords IV rate-setting proceeding, Stingray Music USA and Rockbot before the CRB for the Business Establishment Services IV proceeding, and Roblox in its now-settled dispute with the National Music Publishers’ Association. He is recognized as a fierce opponent of the rampant “consolidation of rights” in today’s music industry.
According to Billboard, a leading publication covering the music, video, and home entertainment business, the attorneys chosen for the “Top Music Lawyers” list were nominated by their firms and peers and selected by the publication’s editors. In addition to Talent and Litigation, other categories of recognition include Major Music Groups, Streaming, Live, Music Publishing, and Performing Rights.
