Athlete Endorsement Contracts

Frieser Legal advises business clients and collectives on college athlete name, image, and likeness endorsement contracts. The marketplace for NIL deals is dynamic and complex, and effective legal representation is critical to properly navigating it. At Frieser Legal, we advise clients on a variety of NIL matters, including contract drafting and negotiation. Additionally, we work with sports agent representatives to craft NIL contracts that comply with state law, as well as NCAA, conference, and institutional policies.

The Frieser Legal Difference
At Frieser Legal, our experience is rooted in compliance with college athletics rules. Understanding NCAA rules, institutional policies, and respective state laws is critical to both our firm and our clients, and drives our mission. Our extensive background working with the NCAA bylaws and state NIL laws helps us to advise our clients in a way that ensures that they are operating within those rules. The first step in every NIL deal that we draft and negotiate on behalf of our clients is to guarantee that it is not in violation of any rule, law, or policy that could jeopardize a college athlete’s eligibility.
