We represent our clients in arbitration proceedings before the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), the Basketball Arbitration Tribunal (BAT) and other regional and domestic arbitration tribunals. Years of experience in the field allow us to provide services of the highest quality on every aspect of the procedure, choosing the best suited procedural strategy, always keeping clients’ interest at heart. 

​

We also represent our clients before sports-related tribunals, such as the judicial and decision-making bodies of FIFA, decision-making bodies of FIFA and of the different confederations, other international sports federations, National Olympic Committees and national sports federations. We defend the interests of our clients in employment and transfer contract-related matters, as well as in disciplinary, anti-doping and ethics issues, among others.

We advise players, coaches, clubs, agents, federations and other football stakeholders in all contractual and transfer matters. We provide services in negotiating and drafting – among others – transfer agreements, employment contracts, representation agreements, sponsorship and kit supplier agreements. We believe that a carefully drafted agreement is the cornerstone of any contractual relationship and the first step to ensure a favourable outcome in any potential litigation that may arise. 

​

Moreover, we provide advisory services tailored on the particularities of international football and its continuously evolving landscape. Leveraging our in-depth knowledge of the regulations and mechanism of football, gained over years of experience in the field, we provide our clients with solutions in relation to the working specifics of the FIFA TMS, the FIFA Clearing House and the FFAR (FIFA Football Agent Regulations), among others.

We represent sports stakeholders and governing bodies, both at international and national level, in the interpretation, creation and implementation of regulations. We assist our clients in reshaping their regulatory framework, including their statutes, disciplinary and ethics regulations, ensuring that they comply both with the highest international standards as well as with their reality and needs. We also advise our clients in ensuring that good governance principles are duly incorporated in their regulations and correctly implemented in practice. We provide guidance in creating and establishing National Dispute Resolution Chambers and Domestic Arbitration Tribunals, in compliance with the requirements established by FIFA and other international federations. 

We provide thorough and tailored training and education programmes to different football stakeholders, including officials of international and national federations, sports governing bodies, clubs and unions. We provide these services also to athletes and to lawyers or other professionals that desire to learn more about the sports ecosystem and its regulatory framework.
