Fighting for Athletes

At Read Law, we are committed to advocating for athletes’ rights within Utah’s educational institutions, ensuring compliance with both federal and state laws.

Title IX mandates that educational institutions must not discriminate based on sex, encompassing all aspects of educational programs, including athletics. Despite this, disparities persist, with female athletes often receiving fewer opportunities and resources compared to their male counterparts. Our education lawyers are dedicated to enforcing Title IX provisions to eliminate such discrimination and promote equal opportunities for all student-athletes.

Our firm offers comprehensive legal representation for athletes facing challenges related to:

• Gender Discrimination: Addressing inequities in athletic programs, including unequal funding, facilities, and opportunities.
• Sexual Misconduct Allegations: Providing defense and guidance through institutional investigations and proceedings.
• Disciplinary Actions: Representing athletes in cases of alleged misconduct, ensuring fair treatment and due process during institutional proceedings.

We are prepared to advocate for athletes at all levels, from negotiations with educational institutions to litigation when necessary. We understand the unique challenges athletes face and are committed to protecting their rights and promoting fairness within athletic programs.

Athletes in Utah’s educational institutions deserve equitable treatment and opportunities. At Read Law, we stand ready to provide the legal support necessary to uphold these principles, ensuring that athletic programs operate fairly and in compliance with both federal and state laws.
