About Jones Walker LLP
Jones Walker LLP has a gaming industry team that works mostly in the US land-based and lottery sectors. Clients include casino operators, gaming device and equipment manufacturers, suppliers, investors and banks.
On the casino side, the lawyers handle licensing, development, acquisition, financing and operation of land-based casinos and riverboats. That covers leases, land use approvals, regulatory compliance, administrative hearings and litigation. The lottery practice deals with retailer contracts, fraud prevention, promotions, procurement and lottery courier services. There is also charitable gaming work for makers and distributors of games and pull tabs.
The firm appears before state regulators such as the Mississippi Gaming Commission, the Louisiana Gaming Control Board, the Florida Gaming Control Commission and the Texas Lottery Commission. Online gaming is not the team's main focus, so confirm iGaming experience if that is your need.
