I had a great time yesterday making my annual visit to Professor Carfagna’s athlete representation class that he teaches at the University of Miami College of Law.

Lots of 7’s in today’s date. It’s a big month for me. I’m closing (hopefully) on a house on July 31, which is not so easy when you’re also trying to run a law firm. Then, I have a tenant moving into my current place at the beginning of August. So, end of July/early August […]
Wishing an enjoyable very long weekend for those of you taking Monday and Tuesday off in celebration of July 4 next week. Congrats to Heitner Legal client Draymond Green for winning Defensive Player of the Year. Quite the honor for a man who was once told he was not cut to be an NBA player. […]

What a wild season of highs and lows for the Miami Heat. The team showed signs of promise in the preseason only to flaunt the worst record in the NBA at the start of the regular season. Then, the team got healthy and gave South Florida (including yours truly) a bunch of hope before losing […]
As of yesterday, I am 32-years-old. Beyond my fiancee reminding me “how old I am,” I still feel rather young. It’s a combination of mentality as well as physical routine. And in reality, I am still young. At least I’ll keep telling myself that. This Saturday, I’m excited to serve as Keynote Speaker at the St. […]
This week’s wrap-up is coming to you live from Houston, Texas, where the weather has been moderate and the Super Bowl events have been rolled out all week. Speaking at University of Houston earlier this week was a blast, especially because I was able to sit alongside former Sports Agent Blog contributor Mark Burns, who is […]
