About Aaron J. Weiss

Aaron Weiss maintains a broad corporate practice advising clients on mergers and acquisitions, private equity, debt and equity financings, corporate governance, and transactions in the entertainment and media, and sports industries.

Years of experience with client transactions and a commitment to success

Aaron had nearly 15 years of experience prior to law school, working in entertainment law, providing business, legal and financial guidance to domestic and international financiers, film funds, distributors, producers and filmmakers working in film, television and digital media. This provided him with a solid foundation for working on high-stakes deals with reliable precision and efficiency. During that time, he developed problem-solving, professional and interpersonal skills, which help drive his practice today.

The experience of assisting clients in launching new ventures, growing existing businesses and shepherding their projects from inception through exploitation is highly transferable to Aaron's current practice, focusing on mergers and acquisitions and private equity transactions, largely in the entertainment and media and sports industries. Aaron builds the cornerstones of his practice around his firm understanding of complex business transactions and a passion for collaborative dealmaking with a focus on results.
