So Cal Legal Video is owned and operated by Lancelot Smith. With well over 20 years working in the media, print, video and film industry. 

A graduate of the London Film School he filmed his first feature film called "The Palace" starring Jan Michael Vincent as well as producing and directing several shorts and documentaries over his career in film and video. 

"The legal industry fascinated me. I found that many attorneys went into their business to actually make a difference in the world, to give people intelligent and articulate representation in court, and to get justice. That resonates with me on a personal level. I wanted to be part of that system, to make a difference but still utilize my talents."

Lancelot recognized the need and value of the visual medium in regards to the legal profession and set out to offer a full range of services to help the legal industry take their case from discovery through trial. 

"Visual impact in the courtroom articulates without a doubt the clients case and can sway a positive verdict. This can mean a positive verdict for your client as well as a substantial monetary difference."

So Cal Legal Video's clients include; Howery LLC, Bradley Gage, Gregory W Smith, Greenwald Pauly Forester and Miller, and many various court reporting companies globally.
