MITCHELL RETURNS TO NIXON PEABODY

Attorney Carron Joan Mitchell, who worked at Nixon Peabody from 2016 to 2018, has returned to the global law firm.

Her clients include Ari Lennox, Cuco, Brent Faiyaz, Freddie Gibbs, Vince Staples, Masego, EarthGang, Raveena and Earl Sweatshirt, as well as newcomers Tanna Leone and Fana Hues. As Sonia Nayak—the company's L.A. managing partner—put it, Mitchell "steadfastly protects their interests to build lasting careers, brands and legacies."

“From artists to producers and executives, professionals in today’s entertainment industry face complex and ever-evolving challenges,” said Ellie L. Heisler, leader of Nixon Peabody’s entertainment team. “Not only does Carron have a unique background representing clients whose careers cross over the music, film, TV and digital content-creation spaces, she has a strong sense of what’s next in terms of developing innovative additional revenue streams and ways for clients to monetize their art."

Outside the office, Mitchell serves as a member of the Recording Academy, the Black Entertainment and Sports Lawyers Association (BESLA) and the John M. Langston Bar Association.

We simply cannot relate to that level of dedication. Outside our office, we're usually eating Cheez Whiz in our undies... Actually, we do that on the clock too.
