production and development to financing and fund-raising on

Angeles Olympic Organizing Committee. Several productions she's
been involved with have gone on to win awards at respected Film
Festivals around the globe.

"EBA," she jokes
referring to her wide-ranging experience. "Everything but
acting!"
With such an
in-depth understanding of the interworkings of Hollywood, it was
only a matter of time of time before she became sought out as an
expert witness and consultant for entertainment-related litigation
and similar matters.
Kathryn provides
litigation support and expert witness testimony on a host of
relevant subjects in the entertainment world. She counts a number
of high profile entertainment law firms as her
clients.
But until recently,
she had never heard about structured settlements. As one who now
routinely helps clients quantify economic damages, she immediately
saw the advantages. Kathryn and I recently chatted
about structured settlements and she couldn't agree more that the
entertainment community has not yet embraced the concept nearly as
much as it could. Or should.
"The entertainment
field is a highly volatile industry filled with boom and bust
stories. And the stakes can be quite high. One year, you're hot
and make a decent living. The next year, and possibly for the rest
of your life, you're just trying to get by," she explains about the
grim realities of Hollywood for many. "Structured settlements can
help even things out for a settling plaintiff."
Here's a link to her recent article she wrote on her website that
introduces the concept of structured settlement to her
followers:

Little Known
Trivia: While Kathryn Arnold may never be able to lay
claim to any acting experience, such cannot be said of yours
truly. In a former life, I worked as an amateur and professional
actor for stage, screen, print and film. With over 25 stage
productions to my credit and very brief stints on
popular soap operas including "The Young and The Restless," (don't
blink or you'd have missed me!), the acting bug has
long passed. The experience does, however, give me some insight
into "the bizz" which I can apply when helping entertainment
professionals make sound choices about their settlement
options.
Thank you for the opportunity to be of
service!
