Protecting your interests with sound legal advice

Sports & Entertainment

We advise on sports and entertainment law, acting for sports and entertainment companies, agents and managers and individual athletes. Discretion and confidentiality are assured. The foremost issue for some sportspeople and people in the entertainment industry is that they enjoy a high income, but often for a short period of time and our advice ensures that this income is protected and maximised.

We have considerable experience in advising on:

• Representation agreements
• Sponsorship
• Merchandising
• Endorsements
• Promoter arrangements
• Player agreements and transfers
• Manager agreements
• Client asset protection

We acted on the acquisition of a current Premiership Club and advised the owners of several other football clubs. We represent a number of Premiership football players as well as players from the npower Championship and Leagues One and Two.

We were the lead solicitors advising on the formation of a new Formula One Team and have many clients in the entertainment industry, including pop, rock and classical musicians.
