Seasoned entertainment attorney Rachel Guttmann has launched Gutt Law, PLLC, a new Nashville-based legal firm tailored to the modern music industry.

Prior to launching Gutt Law, Guttmann garnered over a decade of legal experience. A graduate of Middle Tennessee State University and Tulane University Law School, she began her career clerking for the Honorable Dee D. Drell in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Louisiana before transitioning into litigation defense and entertainment law in New Orleans. In 2018, she returned to Nashville to focus exclusively on the music and entertainment industry.

Guttmann most recently served as a partner at Taylor Guttmann, PLLC, where she built a reputation for guiding artists, songwriters, and producers at all career stages through critical legal decisions.

Joining Guttmann is Victoria Powell, an entertainment attorney with a strong foundation in music publishing and artist relations. A graduate of Belmont University College of Law, Powell holds both a J.D. and a Certificate in Entertainment and Music Business Law. She was formerly an Associate Attorney at Taylor Guttmann.

“Victoria has become an invaluable part of both my team and my clients’ teams,” says Guttmann. “I’m excited to support her continued growth as an attorney and as a person.”

“I’m proud to join Rachel at Gutt Law, PLLC. Her mentorship has shaped the way I approach the practice of law—with creativity, empathy, and a deep respect for the clients we serve. This next chapter is an exciting opportunity and I’m looking forward to what’s ahead.”

Morgan Brasfield has also joined the firm as Head of Operations. A Belmont University alum and former executive at Kobalt Music and NSAI, Brasfield brings more than a decade of experience in songwriter advocacy, operational leadership and music industry development.

“When the opportunity to work alongside Rachel and Victoria came my way, I knew I couldn’t pass it up,” says Brasfield. “I’m honored to join a team with such integrity, purpose, and heart.”

“Adding Morgan to the firm has brought a fresh perspective and an operational strength that enhances how we serve our clients,” Guttmann shares. “I’m grateful every day to work with a team that’s as passionate about helping creatives succeed as I am.”
