About Borden Ladner Gervais LLP
Borden Ladner Gervais, known as BLG, is a national Canadian law firm. Its gaming and sports team covers sports betting, iGaming, esports and the wider gambling industry.
Clients include leagues, teams, operators, broadcasters and game publishers. The work covers provincial gaming and licensing rules, privacy and data security, deals and disputes.
Past mandates show the range. BLG advised Sports IQ Analytics, a sports betting odds supplier, on a US$7 million seed round. It also acted for Playtika on its US$1.9 billion IPO. For an operator entering Canada, the key question is how each province licenses online betting.
