MEET YOUR ADVISOR
Paisley K. piasecki, esq.
hey y’all - I’M PAISLEY.
I’m an attorney based in Savannah, Georgia who was born to empower fellow artists, creatives, and visionaries.
While I may be an attorney, I also see myself as an advisor, arts and business enthusiast, and someone who gets it - because I’ve been in similar shoes as you on my own journey.
My creative roots began in Boston University’s Advertising program and while interning with theater companies in Boston and on Broadway. I knew that I belonged in the arts in the long-term, but I felt a calling to be in roles behind the scenes. I soon decided to pursue becoming an Intellectual Property attorney, and with a specific mission: to help creatives like myself, and make legal work more approachable.
While attending New York Law School, I interned at companies like ABC News and Louis Vuitton, and upon graduating, I worked at an large firm where my practice focused on Intellectual Property & Data Privacy matters in large corporate transactions (i.e., mergers & acquisitions and investments), as well as advising non-profits and start-ups on creative matters as a whole.
Seeking to have a greater impact on my community, and a life full of azaleas, sea salt, and sweet tea, I moved to Savannah in 2024 to bring my legal experience to our city and build a career in support of our local creative industries. Today, I am admitted to practice law in Georgia and New York and part of McCorkle, Johnson & McCoy LLP, where I also practice commercial real estate law. I am also the founder and creative force behind sq. TWENTY-FIVE, a growing social network for young professionals. I am honored and grateful to now call Savannah home.
