Position
Chris is a commercial and regulatory lawyer, concentrating on providing UK regulatory and compliance advice to various stakeholders in the online gambling and gaming industries.
“I specialise in all aspects of gambling law and have extensive legal, regulatory and commercial experience advising many of the world’s largest online and land-based B2C and B2B gambling businesses. I engage with stakeholders on a daily basis, whether they are operators, software suppliers, regulators, payment service providers, start-ups, investors or financial institutions.
I also increasingly advise video gaming, esports, skill gaming and other related media and entertainment businesses and help clients to navigate developments in regulation and self-regulation as their business models and practices evolve and converge with the regulated sector.”
Chris is described in the Legal 500 as “fantastically knowledgeable of the regulatory issues facing the industry. An upcoming star’. Chris is also a general member of the International Masters of Gaming Law (IMGL).
