Teresita Chavez Pedrosa

OF COUNSEL

Teresita Chavez Pedrosa serves as Of Counsel to The Legal Team and is the Chief Executive Officer of Artists at Law. Her practice focuses on entertainment law, with a particular emphasis on the music industry and the business of creative enterprises operating on a global scale.

Teresita brings a rare dual-lens perspective as both a seasoned transactional attorney and an experienced litigator. Her background spans complex deal-making and dispute resolution, giving clients practical guidance on how agreements are structured, protected, and enforced. She has represented Fortune 500 companies and collaborated with leading attorneys nationwide, approaching legal strategy with a business-minded, real-world perspective.

A co-founder of the legal department at Rimas Entertainment, a Puerto Rico based global music label whose roster includes Bad Bunny, Arcangel, Eladio Carrion, and Sech, Teresita helped build legal systems designed to support world-class talent, complex catalogs, and international expansion. Her work contributed to developing scalable legal frameworks capable of navigating the fast-moving global music economy.

Beyond her legal practice, Teresita is a trusted educator and thought leader. She has taught legal advocacy, negotiation, and communication at the law school level and speaks nationally on entertainment law, music industry practices, and the business of creativity. She is the host of The Legal Hack podcast and the upcoming MUSE, powered by Artists at Law, both created to expand access to legal knowledge and informed dialogue within the creative community.

Teresita is a proven leader within the legal profession. She has held multiple leadership roles with the Hispanic National Bar Association, including National Vice President of Membership and President of the Florida Region. Her contributions have been recognized with the HNBA Regional President of the Year award, and she received the John Edward Smith Child Advocacy Award from Lawyers for Children America for her pro bono advocacy on behalf of vulnerable children.

Born in Havana, Cuba, Teresita immigrated to the United States with her parents during the 1980 Mariel Boatlift, crossing the Florida Straits on an over-capacity vessel. She is fully fluent in English and Spanish.
