Lawyers for sports professionals, teams, clubs, agents and governing bodies

We help individuals with every aspect of their professional and personal lives, so that they are free to focus on performing at their best.

Our team works with players, intermediaries and other professional advisers, helping them negotiate the best employment contracts, make the most of sponsorships and endorsements, and protect their brand and image rights.

Our lawyers also represent sports professionals in dispute resolution and help them protect their reputation and privacy. We understand that when working in such a public sphere, it is important we always act with discretion. But it is equally important we act with clarity and authority.

Commercially focused support for clubs and organisations

We work with our clients to maximise their commercial position, comply with regulations and promote their brands. Our corporate team has advised both organisations and investors on the acquisition of clubs, securing the best sponsorship and attracting the brightest talent. Investment and sponsorship agreements play a crucial role in driving the development of the sports we all love, from training academies to the latest technological innovations.

Our commercial lawyers provide guidance on every aspect of our clients’ legal needs. We can draft contracts, advise on acquisitions and disposals, manage brands, support with merchandising, licensing and franchising, as well as issues relating to broadcasting, digital media and technology.

Supporting professionals in personal matters

Because we work collaboratively across the whole of Blaser Mills Law, our clients benefit from a wealth of specialist expertise on everything from immigration to intellectual property.
