Christine Brown & Partners will focus on creating opportunities and defending individual rights, especially as rules and regulations continue to evolve.
“College athletics is changing fast, with shifting rules, expanding rights, and intensifying pressure on athletes and coaches with no clear resolution in sight,” said Christine Brown, Founder and CEO of Christine Brown & Partners. “That’s why there needed to be a nontraditional firm for a nontraditional system. With 30 years of experience guiding people through complex, high-stakes legal challenges, particularly in college sports, I set out to build a firm rooted in knowledge, empathy, and authenticity. One that brings real clarity to uncertainty and gives people the confidence to understand their rights, protect themselves, and seize new opportunities in this evolving landscape.”
Christine Brown & Partners provides personalized legal counsel across a wide range of services, including:
- Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL)
- Athletic Scholarships and Financial Aid
- Title IX and Gender Equity
- Transfer Portal, NCAA Compliance, and Eligibility
- Athlete Rights and Advocacy
- Injury Compensation and Health Coverage
- Coaching and Employment Contracts
Over more than three decades, Brown has exceeded a 90% success rate in high-stakes cases and gained deep expertise inside higher education systems and athletic departments. Her career spans leading roles in private practice, public service, and university counsel, as well as deep experience across major athletic conferences, including the Big Ten, SEC, and Pac-12.
“I’ve never met anyone who fights harder for her people than Christine. From our first call, she treated me like family, believing in me when others didn’t and protecting my future as if it were her own,” said Ricky White III, 2025 NFL Draft pick, Seattle Seahawks and former UNLV wide receiver. “She’s been by my side from college to the NFL, guiding me through every challenge with unwavering loyalty and heart. She rides every high and low with you, fights with everything she’s got, and cares with everything she is. I wouldn’t be where I am today without her.”
Prior to founding her firm, Brown served as Partner at Nesenoff & Miltenberg, LLP; Title IX and Conduct Attorney at Duffy Law, LLC; and Director of Legal Services and Title IX Coordinator at Fairfield University. Brown earned her Bachelor’s degree in Math and Political Science from Boston College, her Juris Doctor from Quinnipiac University, and a Certificate in International Law and Business from Exeter University in the UK.
