Contract advice built around your goals

Whether you’re signing your first professional deal or renegotiating terms after a standout season, it’s vital your contract works in your favour.

We’ll walk you through every clause, flag the red flags, and negotiate on your behalf. No jargon. No surprises. Just a solid agreement that protects your rights and future.

Image, sponsorship and commercial deals

Your name is your brand – and it needs protecting.

From image rights and social media usage to brand collaborations and sponsorship agreements, we make sure you stay in control and get fair value. Whether it’s a local deal or a global campaign, we’ve got your back.

Disciplinary issues and dispute resolution

Things don’t always go to plan in sport – but we’ll help you bounce back.

We advise clients facing disciplinary hearings, doping allegations, contract breaches, or disputes with clubs or governing bodies. Whatever the situation, we’ll handle it swiftly and sensitively to get the best outcome.

Advice for clubs, agents and academies

We don’t just work with players.

Clubs, coaches, agents, and academies also rely on us for guidance on regulatory compliance, safeguarding, contract negotiations, and representation rights. We’ll help you operate within the rules while keeping your people protected.
