Sports

Our Partner-led approach focuses on both current and future opportunities, with us working closely with our clients to maximise their business interests by identifying a plan for income outside of sport.

To sustain a career at the top level, sports professionals need 100% commitment. That is why we also offer our clients a value-added lifestyle management service, teaming up with a number of trusted partners to offer services such as relocation and property search, personal banking and travel management.

Our sports team also works closely with lawyers on all contractual, tax planning and commercial matters, particularly sponsorship and branding.

We currently advise the following: high-profile professional sportsmen and women | sponsors | sports employers | sporting organisations.
