As a former college athlete at the Division 2 level, Brian has unique insight into the daily life of balancing classes and sports. He played football, and he appreciates (then and now) that it was like working 2+ full-time jobs, so he has expanded his legal practice to dedicate a larger portion of his time to working with current and future student athletes. Our firm is here to take a bit of stress off of you and your family in this process so you can focus on what’s important: school, your sport, and your friends and family. This is your career and brand, and we’ll offer insight from a former college athlete and provide you with the tools to succeed in the future.

We at Heinze Legal work to connect athletes and businesses so that both can benefit from strategic partnerships. We ensure that we’re providing top-notch legal advice and expertise so that our clients have a strategic advantage when they have us on their side.

Here’s why you should choose Heinze Legal for your NIL needs:

• Since we have experience being in your shoes, we work hard to provide reasonable and fair legal fees so you can get top-notch legal work, while also avoiding all of the agents out there who increasingly favor pure profit for the agent over his/her clients’ well being.

• Know what you’re signing: NIL contracts can be complicated. We help athletes and businesses understand the actual terms of the deal and ensure it’s what they want in the near and long term. Always avoid surprises when you can.

• Protect your name and brand. Your NIL is valuable. You can find more on our Trademarks and Copyrights page, as we help you ensure that your rights are protected and promoted for the long term. Creating a strategy and adhering to it is key.

• Deals should work for everyone. We help both sides ensure that agreements are clear, practical, and fair.

• Focus on your opportunity and your career. We’ll handle the legal details and get you to where you want to go and be.

• Think beyond just the paycheck. A great NIL deal is about more than just financial compensation. It’s about ensuring that all of the hard work you’ve put into creating your brand (and the goodwill associated with it), is maintained and improved in the future.
