Non-notable individual lacking GHits and GNEWS of substance. Appears to fail WP:BIO.  ttonyb (talk) 22:04, 30 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete After reviewing the sources (many websites were previously listed), he has been credited for quite a number of films where he (presumably) been the main legal representative. However, his particular contribution would have to be notable for itself rather than the notability of such films automatically conferring upon him. Without such specific sources (rather than tangential references) notability is not demonstrated and is unlikely to be in the near future. Lawyers are a particular problem as a number of lawyers have Wikipedia articles based on their name appearing in high profile cases, which by default are public record, even if the lawyer in question has made no particularly notable impact on the legal profession and are not otherwise generally notable. In this instance a parallel would be, say, the chief electricians for the same films, we would not consider them notable only for appearing in the credits. Ash (talk) 22:59, 30 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Delete, no more notable than hundreds of other entertainment lawyers. Hairhorn (talk) 02:23, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
