As the sports world evolves, so do the opportunities for student athletes. The recent changes in the name, image, and likeness (NIL) rules have opened up exciting prospects for athletes like you. I, Attorney Sholdon Daniels, am here to guide you through this transformative journey and help you capitalize on your potential both on and off the field. Let's dive into what NIL means and why having an experienced legal representative can take your game to the next level.


Understanding NIL:

NIL stands for "name, image, and likeness," and it refers to the rights that student athletes have to profit from their personal brand. In the past, you may have faced restrictions on earning money through endorsements, sponsorships, or social media promotions. However, the recent changes now empower you to leverage your popularity and talents to secure lucrative opportunities.
