George Clinton, the legendary “godfather of funk,” is a celebrated songwriter, performer, producer, recording artist and visual artist. Hendricks & Lewis represented him and his entities in trials and/or appeals in California, Tennessee, Michigan and Florida, most of which concerned his music and recordings and the royalties derived from them. After winning a summary judgment in a copyright infringement claim against Capitol Records in Federal District Court in California in 2007, Hendricks & Lewis ultimately obtained a favorable negotiated settlement with that international record company.

In addition to litigation matters, Hendricks & Lewis has assisted Mr. Clinton in a broad array of copyright, trademark and contractual issues.
