We are delighted to welcome Ruthanna Klawansky to the firm, in her role as Senior Lawyer in our Corporate & Commercial, Music, Philanthropy and Digital Media team.
Ruthanna joins us from a specialist arts and entertainment law firm in Sydney. She has a Juris Doctor from the University of Sydney. Prior to that, she completed a BSc in Johannesburg, South Africa, majoring in Physiology and Psychology.
She became a lawyer because she enjoys problem solving and loves people. She is driven to equip artists and creatives with knowledge and practical skills to advocate for their interests. She is simultaneously very interested in assisting her business clients to innovate and achieve commercial success, within a framework that respects the creative industry that underpins them. She brings an eye to detail and meticulous approach to every matter she comes across.
Ruth’s experience as an intellectual property lawyer gives her a special interest in advising clients across live performance, visual arts, publishing, music, talent and brand management, media and advertising, TV and film production, gaming and software, and sports.
