Our Gambling team has taken a leading role in developing an
effective remedy of taking injunctive proceedings and asset tracing
actions on behalf of leading casinos against defaulting high
rollers. The work is often international and, by way of
example, last year we obtained a significant judgement in
the Appeal Court of Malaysia against a government
minister.
We also provide non-contentious advice to the casino sector,
assisting in licence applications, advising on the siting of gaming
machines, the conduct of poker tournaments, the supply and
regulation of casino game monitoring software and a variety of
other operational and strategic matters.
In relation to internet gambling, we represent a number of
casino operators from different jurisdictions and have advised on
all manner of issues relevant to the remote sector including
payment processing, RNG testing and approval, comparison of
licensing jurisdicitions, social responsibility, advertising
foreign gambling, running poker tournaments and many others.
We monitor relevant international developments and have advised
on the effect of the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act in
the US and the relationship to our own extradition
laws.
