DescriptionFrom the viewpoint of Hollywood, the life of a sports agent is about representing celebrity players, traveling to exciting places and mingling with the media. While that may be true, behind the scenes, the contracts which bind players to those who represent them is part of an area of law that is both complex and fascinating. This CLE course will explain the various types of sports contracts and their restrictions, as well as the potential ethical issues involved. The course will also review the differentiation between sports and other types of contracts, strategies for contract negotiations, the various provisions to include or exclude, mitigation procedures, contract termination, intellectual property and boilerplate clauses.
