50 State Regulations In 50 Days

Joshua Golka of Athlete Agent / Sports Agent Regulation Blog announced yesterday that he will be covering athlete agent regulations in each state of the U.S., one state at a time. I believe that this is an excellent idea and encourage you to learn not only about the regulations in the state that you reside, but each other state as well. Officially, you are supposed to register in each state that you conduct business. It is always good to be aware of the law in potential future jurisdictions.

This new feature comes at a pretty opportune time. We have been having a good discussion lately about regulations over at the SportsAgentBlog.com Forum. Today, Golka starts off the new thread with the state of Alabama [50 States in 50* Days – Alabama Athlete Agent Regulation].  I will be making notes for each state for every day that there is a post.  At the culmination of Joshua’s project, I will post a recap highlighting the major points for each state.
