Welcome to TESLAW.org, the website for the State Bar of Texas Entertainment and Sports Law Section!
The Entertainment and Sports Law Section is a voluntary organization within the State Bar of Texas and consists of more than 500 licensed attorneys throughout the state who practice entertainment and sports law. Section members represent a wide variety of clients including employers, employees and entertainment and sports organizations, in both the private and public sectors.
The purpose of the Entertainment and Sports Law Section is to promote and enhance the practice of law by all lawyers who specialize or have an interest in entertainment and sports law.
Twice each year, the section publishes the Texas Entertainment and Sports Law Journal. The Journal contains a report from the Chair on current Section activities. It also contains concise summaries, with commentary by the editor, on recent Texas state and federal court decisions involving significant entertainment and sports law issues. The Section also sponsors an Annual Entertainment Law Institute, our continuing legal education program which brings together the top practitioners in the country.
The Section’s Council, officers, and members have worked hard to make the information on this site available to you, and we hope that you find it useful. If you are a Texas lawyer who is not yet a member of the Section, we encourage you to join today and get involved in the Section’s activities. If you are already a Section member, we sincerely appreciate your involvement and look forward to working with you to make the Section more useful and beneficial for all Texas entertainment and sports lawyers.
D'Lesli Davis
Chair (2009-2010)
