Overview
Luke Fedlam represented Ohio high school athlete, Jamier Brown, in a lawsuit against the Ohio High School Athletic Association's (OSHAA) prohibition of NIL deals for high-school student athletes. The OHSAA voted in Brown's favor and the presiding judge granted an order allowing high school athletes to profit on their name image and likeness (NIL).
In the ESPN article, "Judge grants order for Ohio high school athletes to profit on NIL," Luke states, "This is a significant ruling not only for Jamier but high school athletes across the state of Ohio. There are 44 states that allow high school athletes to enjoy that benefit through NIL."
See below for more details and media coverage about the lawsuit.
