Kelli Sager has spent more than 37 years representing media and entertainment companies, including broadcasters, film producers and distributors, newspapers and magazines, and Web publishers, as well as individual journalists and authors. She joined DWT as a partner in 1994 to develop the firm’s media and entertainment practice in California, which has grown to include more than 30 lawyers statewide (and more than 60 nationally), who handle litigation, production work and transactional matters in the media/entertainment industry. Sager has argued dozens of times in federal and state appellate courts, including many times in the Califor-nia Supreme Court and 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, achieving results for her clients that include precedent-setting rulings protecting their rights to gather and disseminate content to the public. These include cases establishing the public’s and press’ rights of access to court proceedings and government documents.
