Intellectual Property & Image Rights
All athletes, whether active, or retiring have the opportunity to take advantage of their public profile and the opportunities that flow from it. It is not uncommon for athletes to have representatives to attract these opportunities for their clients, however both the athlete and the representative should have available legal advice they can rely upon. .Members of Mercantile Barristers have experience in assisting clients to do just that concisely and confidentially.
How Our Process Works
Instructing our direct access barristers is the cost effective alternative to the traditional route of engaging a solicitor first. The process is just as straightforward. Here’s how the process works:
You Have a Legal Problem?
You can call, email, or fill out an enquiry form to tell us about your case. One of our specialist clerks will speak with you to make the arrangements to advance your case.
We Have the Barrister for You.
Our specialist clerk will match you with the barrister with the expertise to deal with all aspects of your case. They will also obtain and organise the papers the barrister will have to consider in your case.
Initial Consultation
Our clerk will agree the fee for your consultation with the barrister beforehand. The clerk will then arrange a convenient time for you to have the consultation by video call, telephone or in person.
In the consultation the barrister will assess your legal position, devise a legal strategy, and give you appropriate advice on the necessary next steps to achieve your objective.
