Sivonnia DeBarros: Founder, SL DeBarros Law and "Protector of Athletes"

Sports Business Conversations

My guest on this episode, Sivonnia DeBarros, is known as the "Protector of Athletes". A former athlete herself, DeBarros is applying her legal background to help athletes avoid missteps that lead to financial and contractual challenges. And with the rise of Name Image Likeness opportunities for college athletes, she’s never been busier.

In our conversation, we go into her inspiring path to becoming a lawyer and then launching her own law firm. We also cover her burning desire to work with athletes, where she sees NIL opportunities and challenges for college students, and the ongoing legal struggles of the NCAA.

She also lets you know when it’s appropriate to yell “I object” outside of the court room.
