This section ranks the leading UK firms and lawyers demonstrating standout expertise in the sport sector. Regulatory work for sport organisations and governing bodies is highly rated, as is commercial work, when it is related to the sport in question. Work for non-sports clients who are active in the sector may be considered, but will be given less weight.
Advice to sport professionals that does not pertain to sport is not considered. For example, family law or reputation management issues for sports clients are not covered here.
Chambers recognises firms that specialise in horse racing and equestrian law in a specialist table.
