Williams May Have an Edge in Contract Dispute

One attorney, Glenn Moses of the Miami-based firm Genovese, Joblove & Battista, said it is “extremely unlikely” that the Dolphins would be able to hold Williams to his contract in a bankruptcy proceeding because the court would want to maximize Williams’s income by allowing him to negotiate a more lucrative free-agent contract. Another attorney, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because his firm has a connection to the Dolphins, was even more adamant, saying it would be “automatic” under Florida’s debtor-friendly bankruptcy laws that Williams’s contract with the team would be voided.

“Florida has been called the ‘deadbeat state,’ ” the attorney said. “The Dolphins would be smart, under those circumstances, to reach an agreement with him. He’d get to keep his house. He may lose his second house. He may lose some furniture. He may lose his Rolex. He may lose his car. But bankruptcy would end his old contract.”
