Gaming

We represent casino, gaming and e-sports companies in the full spectrum of their operations, from corporate transactions and real estate finance to license procurement and regulatory advice.

CASINOS AND GAMING

Our lawyers represent casino and gaming clients in strategic transactions including mergers and acquisitions, sales, partnerships, joint ventures and restructurings. We understand and are well-versed in the unique aspects of these transactions and are experienced in technology transfer. Our group has particular experience handling the purchase and sale of “skin” licenses on behalf of casino operators and their online betting arms, including navigating the associated trademark issues.

We monitor the state-by-state regulatory landscape governing retail and online sport betting, casino gaming, i-gaming and daily fantasy sports contests. We work with our supplier and vendor clients to ensure compliance and acquisition of appropriate licenses, and have successfully procured licenses and registrations for sports wagering, i-gaming and daily fantasy sports contests.

We have deep understanding of the video game and e-sports market and closely monitor trends in this environment. Our lawyers represent developers in obtaining patents, licenses and other intellectual property protections. Through such representation, we have become familiar with the intricacies of related technology and technology transfers.

Beyond developers, our clients in this space include video game and e-sport coaches, professionals and youth training companies. We have negotiated deals and partnerships between such entities and help facilitate relationships beneficial to our clients’ businesses and the industry at large. As state-by-state regulations evolve, we advise our clients on compliance issues and general business strategy.
