Josh Schiller steps onto the Intersection with Mike Sitrick and Sallie Hoffmeister this week to talk all about the media’s impact on high-profile cases. From representing the estate of George Carlin in an intellectual property dispute over his voice being used for AI content, and the problems posed when his voice is misappropriated. Josh also talks about how he informed the press and brought pressure on the Boy Scouts of America as part of a 2015 case to change a policy discriminating against the employment of any openly LGBTQ adults.
Media’s impact on high-profile cases can influence outcomes and sway public opinion, The Intersection explores where this influence occurs and how you can win in the court of law and the court of public opinion.
Beyond his experience in litigation, Josh tells us about his inspiration from his grandmother to get into law when she told him “a fundamental education in law would open doors in any direction.”
Josh is a partner in the San Francisco and New York offices of Boies Schiller Flexner. Josh has experience working in intellectual property law, securities, antitrust, entertainment, First Amendment, art and music law, civil rights, bankruptcy, and restructuring.
