Morgan Sports Law is noted for its expertise in sporting litigation and investigations, particularly those relating to doping and corruption. It often acts for athletes, teams and governing bodies across all sports. The team frequently appears in CAS and High Court proceedings on behalf of both domestic and international clients. It acts for high-profile clients across football, boxing, rugby and athletics, among other sports.

Strengths

Extremely detailed, and great ability to keep the clients calm in such a big case that was very turbulent.

The firm has the knowledge of the subject as well as a track record and experience of success in an extremely specialised and complex area. Their industry knowledge will assist anyone in this field.

Beyond their legal support, they have shown genuine compassion and understanding, offering empathy not just for the legal process but for the personal impact as well.

Morgan Sports Law were incredibly responsive, empathetic and reactive. I was impressed by them having an internal science team who could quickly respond to queries.
