Mingle. Master. Meet: Entertainment Law Mixer
Join Chicago's Johnetta G. Paye, Esq. of J. Paye & Associates Attorneys at Law and "Chicagolicious" Valincia about entertainment law.

Winning sports teams and windy weather aren’t the only things Chicago excels in, and on Wednesday, September 30, Chicago’s finest in arts and culture will have the opportunity to come out for a mixer event to mingle and mastermind. Join Chicago lawyer Johnetta G. Paye, Esq. of J. Paye & Associates Attorneys at Law and reality star/hairstylist Valincia Saulsberry from “Chicagolicious” at a cocktail reception from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., in Salero Restaurant in the West Loop Chicago area at 621 W. Randolph St.
Invited guests will include entertainers, actors, musicians, filmmakers, film producers, music producers, writers, talent managers, bloggers, podcasters and YouTube personalities from the Chicagoland area. Paye will be on hand to answer any questions about entertainment law, contracts, trademarks and copyrights for both aspiring and established artists. Artists who are looking for a change or a few tips on the entertainment industry will get plenty of feedback from Valincia, who goes by the catchphrase “I want to make you fabulous.”
The Wednesday night event will include plenty of activities. During the first hour, guests can enjoy free Spanish appetizers. Alcohol will also be available for purchase at the standing cocktail mixer. Then, be ready with questions during the 45-minute Q&A session between Saulsberry and Paye, Esq. In the final hour, guests will have the opportunity to network for a second round, enjoy the open bar until closing time and find out more information about the new “J. Paye in Brief” blog.
