Testimonials/Clients

"The team at film permits is absolutely invaluable. Their knowledge and relationships within the film industry have opened doors, expedited permits (that normally can't be rushed) and have saved my shoots countless times because of last minute location switches. Their professionalism and thoroughness can not be compared.  We'd be lost without them."

Joy Asbury,  Joy Asbury Productions

"Denise and her team are absolutely pivotal to our productions.  They know everything there is to know about LA and beyond and always make the permit pulling process seamless, efficient and an unexpected pleasure.  I can't imagine doing what we would do without Film Permits Unlimited and offer them my enthusiastic endorsement."

"I first learned about Film Permits Unlimited in 1993 when I was a photo assistant for car photographers.  Since then, they have always impressed me with their ability to work with different municipalities, state and Federal officials in procuring permits for us to produce what I would
have otherwise imagined impossible.  Today, almost 20 years later, they are still my first call when seeking logistical advice and for frequent reality checks while producing location jobs for our budget conscious clients."

Producit Inc.

"Film Permits Unlimited has been my go to permit service for many years, since I finished my low-budget days when I had to do everything myself!  It's a comfort to know everything is being handled professionally, especially on these crazy last minute commercial requests!  It's also nice to be able to confidently tell a producer "no, that's never gonna happen," based on Film Permits Unlimited's years and years of experience. "

"Wherever I am in the world, and here at home in L.A., Film Permits is the first call and last call for all my permitting needs.   Whether I need signatures in Pasadena, or a bon fire in L.A., a helicopter in Hilo or a parade in Kansas City, Film Permits is always right by my side, making miracles mundane."

Sharon Smith-Herring, Location Manager

"I first met Denise when she was typing a permit for me at the California Motion Picture Council, on an IBM Selectric.   Many years and thousands of permits later we are both still plugging away at it.   And she has never let me down - not even once."
