TYPES OF SPORTS LAW CASES WE HANDLE
At Potts Law Firm, we represent clients in all types of sports law cases, including but not limited to:
- Sports Contract Law: Sports breach of contract cases are complex in that the client is typically negotiating with a professional sports club that employs its own lawyers. Having a sports lawyer that understands these issues is immensely important.
- Sports Employment Law: Sports employment cases typically involve agents and coaches who are negotiating their entrance into or exit from a sports club. Our legal team has extensive experience negotiating sports employment cases.
- Sports Personal Injury: Personal injury cases can range from on-the-field injuries and pressure to return to play to injuries off the field that limit or even end playing careers. Our sports lawyers understand how to tackle these legal issues and ensure your rights and best interests are protected.
Sports lawyers not only have to understand multiple fields of law, but they must also understand their clients. Athletes, coaches, managers, agents, and other sports industry professionals often have hectic schedules, celebrity status, and other characteristics uncommon to the typical client. As such, you need a sports lawyer who will tend to your needs with diligence and open communication.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: How long will my sports law case take?
It depends. Many factors affect the duration of a given case, including the type of case it is, the willingness of the other party to negotiate, whether the case goes to trial, and more. That being said, the more straightforward your case, the less time it usually takes to resolve. More complex cases can take months or even years.
Q: Do you need an attorney to negotiate a sports contract?
While you are not required to hire a lawyer to negotiate a sports contract, it is strongly advised that you do. These cases often involve individuals (athletes, coaches, agents, etc.) and large sports organizations (teams, clubs, universities, etc.). These organizations have large legal teams to protect their interests; you should also consider hiring a legal team that can advocate for you in negotiations and other matters.
Q: Do you have to be a professional athlete to hire a sports lawyer?
No, athletes and other sports-related clients, such as coaches, at all levels may face legal challenges. At Potts Law Firm, we represent professional athletes, college athletes, Olympians, amateur athletes, and all types of sports industry individuals, such as professional, collegiate, and amateur coaches, sports managers, agents, and more.
