Sports law/athlete representation

Because of the growing global landscape, legal issues facing professional athletes continue to evolve and require greater attention. Many athletes now face diverse and complex business and personal planning needs during their professional careers and beyond. With a wide range of business and tax experience, our firm helps clients navigate these legal issues so they can remain focused on the task at hand.

The scope of services provided by our firm allows us to advise clients on a wide range of sports-related issues. This can range from player contract negotiations, endorsement and media agreements, tax and estate planning, tax controversy matters and commercial and real estate transactions. The firm also helps the client analyze sponsorship and business relationships to make sure it fits his or her business objectives.

While the client’s primary focus is maximizing his or her athletic performance, one of our principal objectives is to look at life beyond the playing field. Balancing current concerns with long-term business an estate planning goals helps the client create the necessary stability to continue success as the sports career transitions or winds down.
