Film, TV and Music Audit Rights Discussion at the Beverly Hills Bar Association

My business partner Matthew A. Hurewitz, CPA appeared September 16, 2009 at The Beverly Hills Bar Association's Entertainment Section luncheon. Hurewitz told "The Truth About Net Profits and Audits" with other auditors and litigators Neville L. Johnson, Esq. and Miles J. Feldman, Esq.


Author Moses Avalon covered some aspects of the discussion on his blog here, and I will post below some video footage of Hurewitz's comments, when we shorten it to less than ten minutes.


You may still be able to earn 1.5 MCLE credits if you pay $105 to view the complete panel discussion at West LegalEdCenter.
