Re: copyright lawyer

**Miranda Smith m*@tagoresmith.com**

Hi,

We found a couple of good lawyers and are now in negotiations--we have 
had two instances this spring when we needed a good lawyer. In the first 
case, the fellow backed right down and now, the second person is in the 
process of backing down. The lawyer has been worth the time/trouble/money.

Best,

Miranda
