“Joining Merchant &amp; Gould presents an exciting opportunity to expand our practice,” said Pietz. “Advancements in AI and emerging technologies are redefining the landscape of copyright law, and Merchant’s forward-thinking approach makes it the ideal place to continue serving clients across fashion, entertainment, and media, and to help shape the future of copyright nationwide.”

Morgan brings a breadth of knowledge and experience to the team, beginning at a large firm before transitioning to a sole practitioner, where he developed a niche practice defending individuals in copyright infringement lawsuits. He later joined a mid-sized firm in Century City, where he gained valuable trial experience and established a reputation for success in IP and entertainment litigation. He then formed his own partnership, continuing to represent clients in complex intellectual property and media disputes.

“Morgan’s arrival underscores Merchant &amp; Gould’s continued commitment to serving clients in California and nationwide in the fashion, entertainment and media industries,” said Heather Kliebenstein, Managing Director of Merchant &amp; Gould. “His strong record in high-stakes IP and entertainment litigation will be a tremendous asset to our clients and to the firm’s broader litigation team.”
