LOMBARDI FOR
Coaches
The existing FIFA Regulations do not offer the same framework to Coaches as to Players. However, we have a very strong track record of representation of Coaches in dispute resolutions specifically related to contractual issues and contract enforcement.
I have used the services and advice of Paolo and the staff at Lombardi Associates for a number of years. They have worked on my behalf in proceedings at FIFA and the Court of Arbitration for Sport and assisted me with employment contracts. They have always achieved great results for me and I am pleased to know that I can call upon them in the future when I need any assistance. I would definitely recommend them to others working in the football industry.
