Sport has become a significant industry. The legal support of sports is becoming increasingly relevant.

Not only do we have excellent legal know-how, but also experience in the sports business, a sound understanding of the commercial market conditions and a useful network of important sporting personalities.

We understand your world and will be your best advocate.
