Eversheds Sutherland on Monday added a former top NCAA rules enforcement official who will help the firm serve universities as they deal with with the rapidly-changing litigation environment surrounding name, image and likeness (NIL) and athlete compensation.

Anthony Del Giudice joined the Atlanta-rooted global firm's litigation practice group and education team as a partner after six years as associate director of enforcement with the NCAA—where his work "often focused on rules and requirements at the center of the changing landscape in college athletics," the firm said in its announcement.
