When it comes to putting together celebrity endorsement deals between A-list celebrities and liquor or cocktail brands, Larry Waks, a partner with Foley & Lardner LLP, is a master mixologist! Waks recently launched Travis Scott’s new agave spike seltzer, CACTI. He also represents many clients across food and beverage, distilled spirits, consumer products, fashion, entertainment, media, intellectual property and mergers and acquisitions.
