Football managers and coaches operate in an employment market characterised by short-termism and high turnover, with many experiencing multiple transitions and contract terminations during the course of their careers. Within this context, clear and specialist legal advice is essential to ensure that all cases are handled professionally and respectfully.

The focus is on ensuring that members are properly represented when issues arise and supported through the process of termination or dispute in a way that protects both their rights and their professional reputation.
“The LMA Legal Team has been so helpful for me in my career to date. To have someone there working around the clock to make sure that things get done quickly, swiftly, and fairly is so important."
