Deborah Wagnon

Attorney Creates Network with Offices in Los Angeles, New York and Nashville

Entertainment attorney Deborah Wagnon, a former partner/shareholder with two of the nation's top entertainment firms, has established a new national law practice, effective immediately. Wagnon will be Of Counsel to both Cornelius & Collins, one of Nashville's most respected law firms, and the Fox Law Group, an entertainment practice where she will align with Samuel J. (Sandy) Fox in Los Angeles and Jonathan Pollack in New York, to create a national network with offices in all three entertainment capitals.

Wagnon, who has worked with leading recording artists, producers and songwriters, among them Reba McEntire, Olivia Newton-John, Gloria Estefan, Lee Ann Womack, Robert Earl Keen, Travis Tritt, Randy Travis, and John Berry, will establish a new entertainment and sports division at Cornelius & Collins, a 58-year-old firm with a strong business and litigation tradition. Additionally, Wagnon will complement the Fox Law Group's strong entertainment roster with her ties to the country and Latin music markets.

Wagnon begins this new venture after serving as a shareholder with the international law firm of Greenberg Traurig, where she concentrated her practice on music and film, including mounting the film project "The Journey" intended for release this year. She was based out of the company's entertainment division in Atlanta headed by attorney Joel Katz. Prior to joining Greenberg Traurig, she was partner and lead attorney at the Nashville office of John Mason Partners, Ltd. A graduate of Stanford University Law School, she was previously General Counsel of Landmark Entertainment Group in Hollywood, where she was in charge of all music and corporate affairs.
