COMPANY PROFILE:


Lenhoff & Lenhoff is a management company representing Writers, Directors, Producers and Cinematographers based in the United States, Canada and Europe.
Established in 1991, Charles Lenhoff and Lisa Helsing Lenhoff are the sole principals of this California Corporation.
Charles Lenhoff’s background includes co-owning the Lenhoff/Robinson Talent & Literary Agency, serving as a literary agent at the Gray/Goodman Agency, and production management at Metromedia-Mediasync Producers in New York City.
Lisa Helsing Lenhoff was formerly a literary agent at Susan Smith & Associates, and worked as a literary agent at ICM in the motion picture literary and international departments.
Lenhoff & Lenhoff is a husband and wife team with a mission to provide a high level of management services to its clients while interfacing with the client’s agent, lawyer, publicist, producer, network and studio executives, etc. 
We are a specialized management company with every asset devoted to promoting the client and their work, as well as procuring employment for the client.   Even though Lenhoff & Lenhoff is a management company, we bring an added advantage to the client by conforming to California state labor and guild requirements by maintaining a talent agency license and franchises with the Writers Guild of America and the Directors Guild of America.  Our company operates at the highest standards of accountability and has a total team environment -- every client enjoys the experience and knowledge of unabated access to the principals of the company.  We spend quality time working on the client's behalf and giving them the attention they deserve and need.
As the agency environment consolidates and packaging fees erode due to an increase of studio/network ownership, agencies have an overwhelming need to grow their businesses into ownership positions by investing in production companies, and by having production companies invest in agencies.  In this environment, there are many gray areas of conflicting interests and we believe that managers are more essential than ever in working with clients and their agents, lawyers, publicists, etc. to create client opportunities.  We believe that the manager’s mission is to “keep the focus on the client.” 
Lenhoff & Lenhoff is a hands-on company devoted to moving clients to the next career level. The company remains boutique in size to better serve its clients, and is not constrained by time consuming administrative duties, company politics or unnecessary meetings.  At Lenhoff & Lenhoff, it's all about the client!
The main reason for a client to be disenchanted with their agent is a breakdown of communication and focus.  Lenhoff & Lenhoff feels one of its primary responsibilities as a manager is to keep the flow of information to the client completely fluid.  Whether the client’s career and earning curve needs to be put on track, or the client just wants to get their career moved to the next level, Lenhoff & Lenhoff’s approach is to share our information with the client, pool our resources with their agent, and create bigger and better opportunities for the client.
Management services includes maintaining a very detailed account of studio and network development reports, listing all projects in active development, including the elements involved, and any open writing and directing assignments.  We share this information with the client and work with the client’s agent in identifying client opportunities for either selling or servicing the client and their work.  Lenhoff & Lenhoff is networked with a dozen other agencies and management companies for the sole purpose of pooling information and sharing it with the client to create the best opportunities.
When you are a Lenhoff & Lenhoff client, you have a true manager who is always looking out for you and your career.   We know what studio and network decision-makers want.  We have great relationships with all the top agencies, and we provide all of our clients with honest and insightful guidance and direction.  We'll make sure your name and your work are always presented in the best light.
We are the client's biggest advocate and greatest champion. There is no mountain that we won't climb….seriously!!!
