In this episode of Raising the Bar with RebuttalPR, host Ray DeLorenzi sits down with Sam Katz of Athlaw LLP.
Sam traces his path from a lifelong sports fan in Los Angeles to an internship at Athletes First, where he learned a lesson that still shapes his practice: provide an excellent service, skip the shortcuts, and treat every client as an individual. A chance connection with a former player at the USC law library led to his first case. Rather than turn it away, Sam spent two years mastering NFL disability case law before filing, won full benefits, and built a firm from there.
Sam and Ray also dig into why so many players are denied benefits they bargained for and the pending class action his firm has brought against the NFL disability plan. Sam closes with what he hopes changes over the next decade: a process built around the plan’s purpose of taking care of players who put their bodies and brains on the line for the game.
