Injured athletes have been unknowingly mismanaged.

UNTIL NOW.

WHY WE EXIST

We have seen organizations rush an athlete back to play before they’re ready, creating further injury and/or crushing the goal of a pro sports contract. That cannot keep happening. Athlete’s Advocate was created to…

  • Be a trusted voice for athletes and their families

  • Guide athletes who don’t know correct procedures when injuries occur

  • Serve the athlete as an ally and expert when navigating difficult sports injury situations and maximize their career potential

YOUR STORY

We have borne witness to too many poorly handled injuries, players who didn’t feel like they had anyone on their side, and players who didn’t have anyone in their corner to vet out what they were being told - from a human perspective.

We have seen athletes lose out on the opportunity to play at the professional level because of injury. We don’t want that to be you.

YOU ARE VALUABLE.

Before you return to practice, understand your injuries and the long-standing impacts they could have on your career. We’re here to speak up for you.
