Gaming

We have developed our gaming expertise alongside the world’s largest gaming market, Macau. Over the past two decades, we have advised clients in developing some of the world’s most iconic integrated resorts, in landmark financings and initial public offerings of global gaming players, and in shaping land-based and online legislation in emerging jurisdictions.

Our gaming sector team acts for casino operators, integrated resort owners, gaming equipment manufacturers, technology suppliers, sports betting companies, online and mobile operators, payment platforms and gaming content developers. We have also represented governments, regulatory agencies, private equity firms, lenders, and fund houses with significant investments in the gaming sector.

Through our offices in Macau and Lisbon, we provide comprehensive and sector-focused advice to gaming clients by combining our licensing and regulatory expertise with specialist knowledge across key practice areas, such as anti-money laundering and anti-corruption, data privacy and cyber-security, real estate, employment, finance and capital markets, intellectual property, corporate and commercial, tax and dispute resolution.

We have a deep understanding of both international gaming trends and local laws and practices. Our gaming practice includes the only Macay lawyer ranked as a Band 1 practitioner in Chambers and Partners Gaming APAC, as well as three former in-house counsels who bring along decades of experience working with four of Macau’s six casino concessionaires.
