The Sports Career Question on the Show: What career guidance tips would you give to any young sports lawyer starting their career in the legal sector of the sports industry?

Péter 's Answer: First of all, I would say get to know the industry, get to know the people and build relationships, build meaningful relationships. Then that you need to be persistent and patient.  Don't be afraid to make decisions when it is needed.  Also, I would say that just be a good lawyer. And if you will do real estate law, if you do criminal law, property law commercial, which is not supposed related to sports,  don't be afraid. Because all those experience will help you to understand how Law is applied in the  sports industry.
