NEW YORK—For the second consecutive year, Billboard has named Jonathan Sperling to its annual "Top Music Lawyers" list. This annual list recognizes lawyers who are "on the front lines of the music industry's legal battles and deals."

Recognized in the "Negotiation & Litigation" category, Billboard highlights Sperling's representation of over 50 record labels and music publishers in copyright infringement litigation against Charter Communications, an internet service provider, and his representation of Sony Music in a purported class-action suit brought by Ricky Nelson's estate challenging how the label calculates royalties for its artists.
