At Edge Sports Management, we work closely with each player during the negotiating process to structure a contract that is specific to his needs. We have over thirty years of negotiating experience, and have negotiated contracts in excess of $100,000,000. We have had success in negotiating contracts for players at every stage of a career. We have negotiated maximum "salary cap" contracts under the entry level system for drafted players and free agents alike. We have been successful in salary arbitration proceedings, and have negotiated record setting contracts. No matter what contractual situation a player is in, we have been there before, and the player can rely on our expertise and experience to negotiate a successful result.
Edge Sports Management provides its clients with a complete range of tax preparation and planning. We employ top accounting firms in New York and Winnipeg to prepare all state, federal, and provincial tax returns, both in the United States and Canada for our clients. We personally oversee each clientĖs tax preparation, and work with each client to institute a proper financial plan.
New tax laws have placed a huge burden on athletes. Most of the U.S. states require athletes to file an income tax return if the athlete had played a game in that state. This means that on top of their federal return, athletes sometimes have to file as many as 20 state returns as well. This is something that we take care of, at no extra cost, for our clients.
Without proper estate planning, the government can take over 50% of a playerĖs net worth. Therefore, it is imperative that an athlete properly prepares so that his estate does not lose that amount of wealth. We align our clients with top estate planners, so that our clients can rest assured that their families will be well taken care of in all situations. Again, this is something that we handle for our clients at no extra cost, as part of our efforts to protect our players and their families both during and after their careers.
