Fighting fraud and reputational damage in Sports and Entertainment
We have experience in acting on behalf of a wide range of clients from sports stars/personalities, sports clubs, regulatory bodies, supporters’ trusts and sports/entertainment agents.
We aren’t “another law firm” or set of solicitors in “suits” offering sports and entertainment law advice. There are plenty of those around.
We pride ourselves on being experts who you can pick up the phone to (or send a Whatsapp), have a chat around the issues you are facing and feel comfortable in knowing how your objective can be achieved.
Our objective is to offer bespoke advice and be a “bolt on” to you as an individual or your team. We don’t talk legal talk. We speak in your language to ensure everything can be understood – we keep the legal talk for other lawyers. To us, our work is not “a job”, it is a passion. We thrive on helping clients achieve their goals.
