\n\t\u201cWe\u2019re really excited for this new chapter \u2013 we\u2019ve got a whip smart, dynamic team in Sydney, and work with great clients,\u201d Glass and Hewitt comment in a statement. \u201cThe reason we got into this area of law was passion \u2013 for music but also as enthusiastic students of the history of the entertainment business and the culture.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tBetween them, Glass and Hewitt have handled more than $300 million in commercial transactions in the last three years, reps say, and both have been recognized by Billboard among the world\u2019s Top Music Lawyers.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWe\u2019re very optimistic about what lies ahead as the business dramatically shifts, and the ways we can help put our clients in the position to reap the rewards of their talent, risk-taking and culture-building,\u201d the message continues. \u201cThese are the moments where the most interesting opportunities present themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tCore services offered by Hewitt Glass Law include music (from recording to publishing, touring, catalog transactions and more), entertainment (film, TV and content production, and more), plus M&A and corporate.<\/p>\n

\n\tHewitt Glass opened for business July 1, 2026, operating from Suite 5B, Level 1, 2-12 Foveaux Street in Surry Hills.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cArtists, creators and rights holders are thinking more strategically about ownership, growth and long-term value creation than ever before,\u201d notes Hewitt. \u201cOur goal is to help clients navigate that environment with advice that combines deep entertainment industry knowledge with strong commercial and corporate expertise.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAdds Glass, \u201cAustralian artists and entertainment businesses are achieving success on a scale that would have been difficult to imagine even a decade ago. As those careers and businesses become more sophisticated, the legal and commercial challenges become more complex as well. We created Hewitt Glass to provide specialist advice that reflects the global entertainment market.\u201d<\/p>\n
