Power Lawyers 2022: Hollywood’s Top 100 Attorneys
Entertainment Partner Amy Nickin is included as a 2022 Power Lawyer in The Hollywood Reporter's list of Hollywood’s Top 100 Attorneys. For Amy, one of the most rewarding parts of the job is helping her clients see through their ideas from inception to reality, as was the case with Brian d’Arcy James’ upcoming CBS comedy How We Roll. Amy, whose clients also include Aaron Sorkin and John Goodman, assisted Melissa Benoist in setting up her post-Supergirl gig (HBO Max’s Girls on the Bus) and lined up Dan Fogler on the new Fantastic Beasts movie as well as playing Francis Ford Coppola in Paramount+ series The Offer.
