Mark and Leanne Kelly
Mark is the best! He takes the time to really listen to concerns, to explain some of the ins and outs of the music business, and to provide strong individualized advice. He is also a fierce supporter of independent musicians. I highly recommend ARC Law Group for all your legal needs!
Jeremy Darrow
Mark has been a great member of my team, and is 100% essential to what I do. It's rare to find someone so skilled, and so generous with their time and energy.
Ayelette Robinson
I've been working with Mark for 4 years and he continues to be a superb advocate and team member in every way. I've worked with him on several aspects of entertainment and corporate projects, and he's always been extremely knowledgeable, thoughtful, responsive, creative, and supportive.
Carmen Caruso
Mark is not only my lawyer, he has become a good friend. He has helped me navigate my band contracts, listening to band members so that everyone felt heard and coming up with a solution that worked for everyone. Not only that but he's come to many of our shows and supported us. And when we had our first album release party, he even showed up with a bottle of champagne. I always feel like Mark has been there to ask legal advice with a compassionate ear and I'm so grateful to have a lawyer like him in the San Francisco music community.
Kimberlye Gold
