Background

In July 1986, Robert Scard established a management consultancy for the purpose of advising participants in the music industry. This business has grown into a strong consultancy and management resource: the Artisan Management Consultancy Pty Limited.

Subsequent to the founding of his consultancy business, Robert formed his own legal firm to specialise in providing legal advice to those involved in the Entertainment Industry. In addition to our strong focus on entertainment law, the legal practice now advises and assists in preparing documentation and contracts for many other areas: intellectual property law (including trade mark and patents) and in general company matters.

While music and entertainment law is a core element of our practice, new digital media technologies and platforms such as websites, online businesses, iPhone applications, and gaming applications, have also become significant to the business.

History

Previous to practicing law in his own firm, Robert was the Business Affairs Manager at CBS Records Australia Limited in the early 1980′s. There, Robert was responsible for signing many well-known Australian musical acts and artists, including Midnight Oil, Men At Work, Redgum, Eurogliders, Mental As Anything and Misex.
