Gambling

The gambling sector is a major growth area in the UK. In particular, the online gambling sector continues to go from strength to strength and e-sports betting is quickly becoming a global sensation. As a result of our recognised expertise in advertising, entertainment and sport we are well placed to service our clients’ needs in this constantly evolving market.

The UK has one of the most advanced online gambling regulatory systems and has recently undergone a major facelift, with the UK gambling regime moving from a point of supply to a point of consumption basis. This has had a major impact on operators providing online gambling services to customers based in the UK.

We have lawyers who have in-depth industry knowledge (resulting from in-house experience) and are well equipped to guide gambling companies through the ever increasing regulatory scrutiny. Our team advises on a wide range of commercial queries applicable to the sector, including advertising & marketing, data privacy, digital, employment, tax and intellectual property. We also advise on exciting emerging areas such as crypto currencies, and the impact of crypto on the gambling sector.
