SPORTS CONTRACTS
Don't sign it alone. Let's read it first.
Professional contract, agent agreement, and sponsorship deal review for Ontario athletes at every level.
THE DIRECT ANSWER
What is a sports contract review?
A sports contract review is a clause-by-clause legal read of a contract an athlete is being asked to sign — a playing contract, an agent agreement, an endorsement, a coaching deal, or any other document that commits the athlete's time, rights, or earnings. The review flags the terms most likely to hurt, identifies negotiable points, and produces a redline.
WHY IT MATTERS
Athletes sign contracts under pressure.
A team offer with a 48-hour signing deadline. An agent agreement handed over at a tryout. A brand deal emailed the day a campaign launches. The pressure is the point — it is designed to short-circuit careful review. And it works. Most athletes sign contracts they have not fully read, let alone pushed back on.
Our review process is the same whether the contract is a six-figure playing deal or a one-post brand agreement. We read it clause by clause. We flag the three to five terms most likely to hurt. We produce a redline. We explain in plain English what each clause actually does and what the market terms are. When the athlete has leverage, we negotiate. When the deadline is real, we prioritize the changes that matter most.
We work with athletes directly and, where it helps, alongside agents and parents. We do not replace agents — we back them up on the legal work that is outside their scope.
