Representative Matters
Examples of legal strategy we provide for athletes, creators, gaming operators, and growing businesses.
NIL & Brand Protection
Building a Seven-Figure NIL Portfolio for Elite Athletes
Challenge
College athletes with significant social media followings need to monetize NIL opportunities while maintaining NCAA compliance and protecting their personal brands for long-term value.
Solution
We structure multi-entity LLC frameworks to separate income streams, negotiate multi-brand sponsorship portfolios, secure federal trademark registrations for personal brands, and implement licensing agreements for merchandise and digital products.
Outcome
Our approach enables athletes to maximize current NIL value while building defensible IP portfolios and maintaining eligibility, positioning them for professional success.
Gaming Law
Navigating Multi-State Expansion for Gaming Operators
Challenge
Skill-based gaming platforms face complex, state-by-state regulatory frameworks that can delay expansion and create compliance risks without proper legal infrastructure.
Solution
We conduct comprehensive 50-state regulatory surveys, design scalable compliance frameworks, manage multi-jurisdiction licensing applications, and implement ongoing regulatory monitoring to anticipate changes.
Outcome
This strategic approach enables gaming operators to expand efficiently across multiple states while avoiding costly penalties and maintaining strong positioning for institutional investment.
Wealth Preservation
Sophisticated Estate Planning for High-Net-Worth Athletes
Challenge
Professional athletes and entertainers with substantial assets need comprehensive strategies to minimize estate taxes, protect wealth from creditors, and secure specialized benefits while planning for multi-generational wealth transfer.
Solution
We design irrevocable trust structures, implement dynasty planning for long-term wealth preservation, navigate complex benefit recovery processes (including NFL and NFLPA programs), and create layered asset protection mechanisms.
Outcome
Our planning significantly reduces estate tax exposure, maximizes benefit recovery, and establishes trust infrastructure that protects wealth across multiple generations.
IP & Licensing
Building Content Empires for Digital Creators
Challenge
High-earning digital creators need comprehensive IP protection, licensing infrastructure, and sophisticated contract negotiation to maximize brand partnerships and defend against infringement.
Solution
We file strategic copyright and trademark portfolios, negotiate high-value brand partnership agreements, structure licensing deals for physical and digital products, and implement proactive enforcement strategies against infringers.
Outcome
This comprehensive approach enables creators to secure exclusive partnerships, build defensible IP portfolios, and successfully enforce their rights to protect revenue streams.
