Sports Law

The growth, global expansion and professionalization of sports in recent years has generated the need in the legal field to be able to offer specific solutions through specialists in the field.

At Martínez Echevarría, this commitment is absolute and that is why we have an area exclusively dedicated to Sports Law, led by Gonzalo Jiménez Illana as partner, with significant experience in the sector.

At Martínez Echevarría, we offer advice in specific matters of the sector such as disciplinary matters, regulatory adjustments, litigation in national and international arbitration, as well as in other more transversal areas, such as the drafting of labor, sponsorship, audiovisual contracts, etc.

Sports law deals with problems inherent to the nature of sports, such as cases of doping or sports betting, but we understand that it goes beyond when we must offer a global vision of the general regulation, the specific regulation of this matter and in many occasions combine it with international and private associative regulations.

We work a 360º service, for a sector whose maxim is always the constant improvement and that guarantees the security that Federations, Clubs, Agencies and Athletes need to achieve their goals.
