Sports & Entertainment Law

Sports
Sports Law encompasses a multitude of areas of law brought together in unique ways to address the legal representation of professional and amateur athletes. Legal issues such as antitrust, contracts, torts, intellectual property and compliance are the most common. New developments such as “NIL” (a term which stands for “name, image and likeness”) compensation and revenue sharing for collegiate athletes has created a new and heightened legal representation requirement. 

Entertainment
Entertainment law is a practice area that encompasses various legal disciplines crucial to the dynamic entertainment industry. Entertainment law often involves legal areas such as labor and employment, intellectual property, finance, and distribution law. It covers film, music, social media, streaming platforms, television, video games, and other interactive entertainment sectors, as well as live performances. At its core, entertainment law focuses on negotiating and drafting contracts, protecting intellectual property, and ensuring compliance with relevant laws and regulations.
