Josh is a Trainee Solicitor and is currently undertaking his second seat in the corporate and commercial team.
Josh graduated in 2020 with a 1st Class BA (Hons) in Sports Law and Business and continued to further expand his knowledge in Sports Law through completing a Master of Laws (LLM) in Sports Law and Practice at De Montfort University.
While completing his further education, he spent 3 years at Wycombe Wanderers Football Club within the commercial department, starting off as Commercial and Legal Executive in which he oversaw the process of the selling of the club’s commercial inventory through to the drafting of the commercial agreement which accompanied the sale, liaising with governing bodies ensuring the club adhered to all relevant commercial regulations.
He supported the General Counsel and the Owners in various commercial disputes throughout his time at the club, and towards the latter end, became head of the commercial department before leaving the club to pursue a more legal orientated role.
At the start of the 2021 football season, he joined First Access Sports, a sports agency based in the Knightsbridge, working as a paralegal. His role was to support the in-house General Counsel with all matters within the department, including; preparing representation agreements for potential new clients; reviewing and analysing agreements between clients, the agency and clubs; and advising on commercial matters involving the agency and its clients.
