Thomas Jefferson School of Law Annual Sports Law Conference

On Saturday, February 10, the Thomas Jefferson School of Law and its Sports Law Society will be hosting the law school's 5th Annual Sports Law Conference. I am excited to be a panelist at the event. I will be joined by a number of terrific panelists, including baseball agents Barry Axelrod and Robert Teaff as well as Nashville Predators general counsel Chris Whitson and Hang Ten general counsel Joanna Tsai. The Keynote Speaker will be David Cornwell, President of DNK Cornwell and former NFL assistant general counsel (and lawyer for Leigh Steinberg in his lawsuit against David Dunn). Topics include licensing and sponsorships in the sports industry, labor issues in the sports industry, and steroid policies. I will be speaking on labor issues in the sports industry, and I look forward to my first trip to San Diego in over 20 years.

Special thanks to Professor Julie Cromer and Sports Law Society President Brenda Foster for the invitation to participate. For more details on the event, which offers three CLE credits, click here, and to register click here.
