A career changes. A family continues.

Connect your earnings, rights, and family decisions to the next chapter.

Start with three needs.

Someone able to act.

Choose appropriate financial and healthcare authority, information permissions, and backups.

Explore

The rights you actually have.

Review payments, image use, assignment, and personal obligations with your agent and counsel.

Your family and future.

Coordinate ownership, beneficiaries, business interests, and changes in residence or career.

See an NIL example.

One sponsorship. Three kinds of value.

A fictional 18-year-old athlete is offered monthly posts and two appearances. Separate money received, payments earned but unpaid, and compensation that still depends on future work.

Then review who can act if the athlete cannot, what rights survive, and how ownership and beneficiaries fit. Estate planning does not override a contract or establish eligibility. Coordinate with school compliance and tax advisors.
