Sport

Sports law is an increasingly important area of our practice. We advise on all aspects of this continually developing area.

Whether you are a sports organiser, promoter, agent or all-important competitor, we can give you the right advice.  Our expertise is extensive and includes:

  • International, high profile sporting competitions and events
  • Brand management and protection
  • Merchandising
  • Sports rights strategies
  • Media rights
  • Event management
  • Appointment of agents
  • Employment related issues.

We have, in particular, considerable expertise in sailing matters, including advising on the America's Cup.  We also act for a number of leading international sailors (including Dame Ellen MacArthur, Ben Ainslie, Iain Percy, Shirley Robertson and Neal and Lisa McDonald).
