As a first-year lawyer, Derek rose to the challenge of being assigned by his law firm to be the sole clearance attorney for "The Man Show," starring Jimmy Kimmel and Adam Carolla--two personalities who were always pushing the boundaries in terms of legally questionable stunts.
Now the vice president of business and legal affairs for a movie studio, Derek negotiates deals relating to motion picture production and provides legal counsel to the studio's home entertainment division.
