Licensing / Gaming

Legislative changes – both in the UK and internationally - together with recent significant global expansion, have offered exciting business opportunities for our clients in the licensing and gaming sector.

Our specialist Licensing and Gaming team practices exclusively for UK and international clients in the area of alcohol, betting, gaming, cinema, entertainment and late night refreshment licensing, lotteries and remote gambling.

We are also able to advise on associated compliance and regulatory matters, including health and safety, food safety, trading standards and criminal prosecutions.

Our lawyers appear as advocates before local authorities and in Magistrates’ Courts and on appeal to Crown Courts throughout England and Wales and are recognised as among the country’s leading experts in this field, with an enviable reputation.

They regularly publish articles in specialist trade publications and were involved in the recent proposals for liquor, entertainment and gambling law reform.

This focused expertise means we can help clients take advantage of the business opportunities in the sector while offering guidance on how to keep them protected from regulatory and legislative minefields.
