With over twenty years of experience advising businesses in the entertainment and media industries, Julia Alexander brings deep industry knowledge and strategic perspective to her role at ALAPC. Her practice sits at the intersection of entertainment, media, and business, and is informed by a career that spans legal, commercial, and production-facing roles. This breadth allows Julia to counsel clients with a practical understanding of how creative objectives, business realities, and legal structures operate together over time.
Before law school, Julia worked in a range of production capacities, including documentary filmmaking and executive and creative support roles. That early experience continues to shape her legal approach, grounding intellectual property and transactional work in an understanding of how projects are actually developed, produced, and exploited. After law school, Julia was mentored by leading entertainment attorneys and went on to advise major independent domestic and international clients on business and legal affairs matters across film, television, and media. Her entertainment and media practice encompasses intellectual property, rights acquisition, production, distribution, and financing, and she further refined this work through her experience with Netflix and Disney, where she handled high-profile projects and complex transactions within global media organizations.
Julia is a certified mediator, enhancing her ability to manage negotiations and resolve disputes with clarity and efficiency. She has served as a speaker and panel moderator at ABA Forums on the Entertainment and Sports Industries and North American Law Summits, has been a guest lecturer at UCLA Extension, and is a published author for Lexis Practice Advisor: Intellectual Property and Technology.
In addition to transactional representation, Julia advises individuals and business owners on estate planning and succession-related matters, particularly where personal and professional interests overlap. This work includes planning for incapacity, asset transition, and long-term responsibility, and is informed by the same strategic perspective she applies to entertainment and business transactions. Where appropriate, this planning addresses business interests, intellectual property, and animal care considerations, including through the firm’s Trust Tails™ framework.
Julia’s approach to complex matters is reflected in ALAPC’s Counsel Systems, which provide structured legal frameworks for defined operational contexts. These systems are applied selectively to support projects or operations that benefit from organized guidance aligned with real-world practice.
Whether advising on entertainment and media transactions, estate planning, or business structuring, Julia provides practical, thoughtful guidance tailored to each client’s objectives.
