HOCKEY LAWYER

In a forthcoming research study conducted by Neufeld Legal P.C., it was identified that approximately fifty-four percent (54%) of current National Hockey League (NHL) All-Stars are seeing a portion of their legitimate commercial rights and revenues being siphoned away by the improper and illegal actions of unaffiliated third-parties, who are profitting at the players' expense. Whereas correcting such impropriety is possible (with limited time and cost), it remains largely unrecognized and/or there is a failure to act. In turn, many NHL hockey players are losing out on commercial revenue that is rightfully their own.

BUSINESS VENTURES FOR HOCKEY PLAYERS

Moving into off-ice business ventures is never as easy as it seems and will invariably benefit from the input and guidance of an experienced business lawyer.

Your business life should not be limited to your hockey playing days, but will have to extend beyond your retirement from the hockey arena. Whether it is a financial necessity or simply a means to make your life that much more fulfilling, planning and pursuing business ventures beyond ice rink is a critical aspect to your life plan. And as an experienced business lawyer, I can tell you that it is far more challenging than most people realize.

Nevertheless, if you make smart decisions from the outset and involve the appropriate professionals in the planning and implementation of your particular business ventures, your chances for success will increase exponentially. For especially in today's business environment, where commerical operations are so heavily influenced by laws, regulations and contracts, it is a priority to have the right legal counsel in your corner, such that you are properly positioned to optimize business opportunities and limit legal vulnerabilities and risk. It is an entirely different competitive arena from the hockey rink, though it shares many comparable attributes, including the need for assembling the right team and having them effectively implement the game plan to secure the victory (whether its in hockey or commercial business).
