Sherry Rasmus is unique in the arena of player representation, an area where few females participate. Some argue that it is a man’s world, but it is true that behind every good man stands a good woman. Both Rasmus’ experience and success as a trial attorney give her a personal understanding of what it takes to become a successful professional baseball player: hard work, preparation, competitiveness and LUCK. She knows what is meant by “makeup” in a baseball player.

Rasmus focuses her representation of athletes on professional baseball. She has represented professional baseball players for more than a decade, keeping informed on NCAA rules and regulations relating to player representation and eligibility requirements as well as the current Professional Baseball Agreement.

Part of her service is as an advisor to young high school players and their families. She has counseled many families  in the challenge of determining the timing and wisdom of their son becoming a professional baseball player, considering such things as the maturity level of their son, the value of a college education and the promise of a career as a professional baseball player. When a young man is picked in the amateur draft, Rasmus has provided advice in the negotiations between the family and player and major league team. As an advisor, she has assisted parents and players as they negotiated significant signing bonuses.

Rasmus has a love for the Game and what takes place between the white lines.  Still, when an objective viewpoint is necessary, Rasmus provides counsel and perspective.  Contact her about how she can assist your family and son  in the process.

Rasmus has represented several professional baseball players, providing counsel and legal advice and assisting in negotiations with baseball organizations. She takes an active interest in her clients’ success and maintains regular communication with each.
