DTM Legal is proud to announce the formation of its new Sports Law Team. Headed up by Julie Mogan and comprising experienced lawyers Tom Sutcliffe and Paul Edwards, the DTM Sports Law Team will offer existing and new clients the benefit of instructing lawyers with the benefit (from a personal and professional perspective) of applying legal and commercial principles within a sporting context. Both Tom and Paul have played sport (and continue to be involved in football and rugby respectively) to a semi-professional level and are fully aware of the idiosyncrasies which make the law of sport a distinct and discrete area of law.
Whilst it undoubtedly encompasses aspects of other areas of expertise (including but not limited to the law of contract and employment), the DTM Legal Sports Law Team firmly believe that to apply the general principles of those areas of law without acknowledging the sports context within which they are to be applied would be to give incomplete (if not incorrect) advice.
The Sports Law Team will offer advice on all aspects of law applicable in a sports environment, including:-
· Professional sportsperson contracts of employment/service agreements
· Sponsorship agreements
· Broadcasting agreements
· Image Rights
· Venue related agreements
If you have any questions regarding the services offered by the Sports Law Team, please contact Julie, Paul or Tom on 01244 354800.
