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. For professional hockey players seeking to inquire about their situation, contact us (this study shall not be publicly available). |

HOCKEY PLAYER REPUTATION PROTECTION: LEGAL-COMMERCIAL Your reputation will dictate your future business opportunities, so you should not allow others to mess with your reputation. Protecting your reputation is absolutely essential to the long-term preservation of the hard work and goodwill that you will build up as a professional hockey player. And unfortunately, in this new age of instantaneous communications, it is very easy to destroy one's reputation with unsubstantiated accusations and misrepresentations, which if not promptly and effectively dealt with, can seriously inhibit, if not destroy, one's ability to commercially profit from one's professional hockey reputation. With so much now hinging on reputation (given the heightened levels of accessibility) and how easily it can be slandered, it is essential that as a professional athlete you not only know who to contact when such a situation should arise, but you also have in place the means to promptly deal with these situations, such that effective damage controls can be put in place. This will enable to deal with lies and mistakes, while presenting the truth without all the sensationalism that is goes into such gossip reporting. You should never be allowing others to redefine your reputation improperly, instead you need to utilize those legal avenues available to yourself to promptly and effectively deal with those situations. For more information on how you can protect your reputation in the face of slander and unsubstantiated accusations and misrepresentations, contact lawyer Christopher Neufeld at Christopher@HockeyLawyer.ca or 416-887-9702 (Toronto, Ontario) / 403-400-4092 (Calgary, Alberta). |
