Congratulations to Associate Joy Bonner on her continued leadership in Sports & NIL Law! đ
We are proud to highlight the work of Joy, whose expertise in Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL), and collegiate athletics compliance, continues to shape conversations across Georgia and beyond.
In December, Joy served as a guest speaker at the TYGTAL Expo in Alpharetta, speaking with high school freshmen, sophomores, and juniorsâalong with their familiesâabout the importance of reviewing agreements as student-athletes begin navigating the NIL landscape.
Last week, as Chair of the Georgia Young Lawyers Division Sports Law Committee, Joy organized and produced a CLE at the State Bar of Georgia Midyear Meeting at The Battery Atlanta. The program, âChanging the Game: NIL, AI and AthletesâA Sports Law Update,â welcomed 80+ Georgia attorneys and featured leading professionals discussing the evolving intersection of sports, technology, and law.
What this means for our clients:
Our firm is actively developing and expanding its Sports Law practice, with a current focus on student-athletes and emerging opportunities in this rapidly changing space.
Stay tunedâexciting things are ahead.
