Sports
Law for Professionals
Winheller Attorneys at Law offer
legal advice to professional sports clubs, sports associations,
coaches, managers, sports officials, athletes, promoters, gyms
and fitness centers, TV and radio broadcasters, and all other
people in the professional sports industry. Winheller Attorneys
at Law provide expert legal counsel with respect to all sports
law issues - in Germany and internationally. We also specialize
in criminal sports law, specifically in handling doping and
substance abuse cases.
We represent our clients in and
out of court, before all special sports courts, as well as in
all sports-related arbitration and mediation proceedings. We
draft and negotiate all necessary agreements and club rules,
deal with media and entertainment law issues, protect your privacy
and publicity rights against media invasions, get you promotion
and marketing deals, license your name and likeness to sponsors
and advertising companies, handle liability claims, and advise
you in all tax and labor law issues - nationally and internationally.
Winheller Attorneys at Law stand for drafting and negotiating
quality contracts, which live up to international standards.
Taking care of all required agreements is vitally important
since, e.g. in case of soccer player transfers, boxing events,
license agreements with TV broadcasters, or special marketing
deals, generally millions of dollars are at stake. In order
to render a sports career, the management of a sports club or
a sports event successful, accurately drafted agreements are
essential to lay solid legal foundations among all participants.
Sports Law for Amateurs
Next to offering legal advice to all people connected
with the professional sports industry, Winheller Attorneys at
Law offer legal help to all non-professional sports participants,
e.g., for sports clubs we draft new club rules, for event planners
we set up new sporting events, and for sportswomen and sportsmen
we handle sports liability issues. Our legal help covers all
relevant German and international sports law issues and includes
representation in and out of court and in arbitration and mediation
proceedings, drafting and negotiating all necessary agreements,
helping you register your new sports club, tackling with all

sports associations and NPOs, and advising you in all tax law
