Entertainment and Sports Law

The field of entertainment and sports law covers a remarkably broad and varied practice area. The practice involves such substantive areas of the law as contracts, labor, corporate finance, intellectual property, and antitrust. Lawyers in the sports and entertainment fields are specialists because of their knowledge of their clients' worlds (entertainers, athletes, and organizations related to the entertainment and sports industries) and how the relevant legal issues intersect with their clients' interests.
