Addleshaw Goddard is providing advice to the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) Road World Championships in return for sponsorship at the event.
The mandate, which came as a result of a "proactive approach" by Addleshaws, will see the international firm's sports business group, led by partner James Whittaker, act as the "official lawyer" to the cycling championships, which will take place in Harrogate in September, the firm announced.
The appointment was negotiated by Addleshaw Goddard partner and head of employment, Michael Leftley, and will see Addleshaws receive sponsorship and other benefits.
