My child was ruled ineligible. How fast should we act?

Immediately. Eligibility decisions often trigger short internal timelines (sometimes measured in days). A prompt triage call helps preserve options.

Do you only handle CIF?

No. We handle high‑school section matters statewide (CIF) and NCAA eligibility, amateurism, and related school/league issues.

What does the first call cover?

We map deadlines, list key documents, outline a strategy, and quote fees so you can decide quickly.

Can you guarantee a win?

No lawyer can guarantee results. We promise rigorous preparation, clear advice, and fast execution.
