Where we stand
We represent the musicians making the music.
Not the platforms automating it.
Songwriters, producers, performers, and bands whose music starts with them. The question is whether the music is yours.
01 · The Firm
Lawyers who play.
Allen.James LLP is a two-partner firm. Andrew in San Diego, Ted in Westchester. We met in law school in a band, and we have been friends across two coasts and two decades of practice.
We recorded our first album as Buzz Awhile in 2026 — three months at Outraged Studios and Arnow Studios in New York. It is not the firm's pitch. It is just a thing we made.
