Sports and Law: How Private Equity is Shaping the Landscape of College Athletics and Beyond

In recent years, corporate interests have become heavily involved in the world of sports. Private equity and sports investment funds have played a significant role in shaping the sports landscape, particularly in college athletics. As a result, women’s sports are on the rise, becoming more popular and profitable.

One key player in this trend is Brad Karp, chairman of Paul Weiss. He has highlighted the growing importance of sports practices in Biglaw firms, noting that the industry is seeing an increase in media rights deals and franchise values. Karp emphasized that lawyers play a crucial role in navigating these nuanced legal judgments and interpretations, predicting that these trends will continue well into the future.

As a senior editor at Above the Law since 2011, Staci Zaretsky has witnessed firsthand how these trends are shaping the world of law. She is open to hearing from readers and welcomes tips, questions, comments or critiques on her X/Twitter account or LinkedIn page.
