Sport, Media and Entertainment

International Arbitration & Alternative Dispute Resolution

Many disputes within the sports and entertainment industries are resolved outside the courts.

Members of Chambers have extensive experience acting in domestic and international arbitrations, mediations and specialist dispute resolution procedures, providing commercially focused solutions whilst protecting clients' reputations and commercial interests.

Public Law & Regulatory Matters

Our expertise extends to judicial review, regulatory challenges and public law issues affecting governing bodies, public authorities and organisations operating within the sport and entertainment sectors.

We regularly advise on:

• Regulatory investigations

• Licensing decisions

• Public law challenges

• Human rights issues

• Equality obligations

• Governance reviews

• Independent investigations

Public Access

Many of our barristers are authorised to accept instructions directly under the Public Access Scheme.

Where appropriate, individuals, clubs, sports professionals, directors, performers, content creators and businesses may instruct a barrister without first engaging a solicitor.

Our Clerks will be pleased to discuss whether Public Access is suitable for your matter and recommend the barrister whose expertise best matches your requirements.
