Sport

Spring Legal advises stakeholders in the world of sports, high-level athletes and private and public organizers of sporting events, with a cross-disciplinary approach to applicable law, particularly in the areas of corporate, intellectual property and personal data.

Spring Legal has developed a particular know-how in assisting the organizers of sports events and rights holders, in particular with regard to the negotiation and drafting of contracts for the transfer of rights, and image, sponsorship or partnership contracts.

The IP/IT team advises its sports clients (athletes, players, coaches) on all aspects of the defense of their personality attributes (image, name, voice, signature, caricature, nickname, …).
