Sports law involves a collection of various rules and regulations that can potentially impact the sports industry. These regulations are typically set for players and athletes, managers, and clubs, and it is important for them to be followed. 

We’ve recently added to our sports law department at our Newcastle office. It’s a very exciting time for us and we look forward to developing the Beeston Shenton team even further. The department will be headed by Russell Dutton, who brings a wealth of legal, managerial, and client-based experience after running his own company for the last 7 years, before its sale in 2016. As well as Russell Dutton, we have a team of introducers including coaches, former players and others well respected within sport generally.

We will also have the Vice President of Keele University’s Law School, Jade Wanden joining us this month. Jade is in the final year of her degree and will be helping us in the department through a weekly placement and liaising with clients and sports equipment suppliers for our players. 

We’re thrilled to expand our expert services in sports law and we’re looking forward to welcoming more new clients in the future. To help you understand what our niche department involves, here’s everything you need to know about our sports law services…
