Doug is a partner in our New York office.

Prior to the NFL, Doug worked in Las Vegas as SVP, Legal & Business Affairs of an international sports betting technology company, where he oversaw all legal and regulatory matters.

In addition to U.S. gaming and sports betting, Doug brings a wealth of expertise in general commercial transactions, including sponsorships, data distribution deals, consumer products licenses, and primary ticketing partnerships.

Doug represents clients across a range of industries, from sports leagues and professional teams to international gaming companies, data distributors and consumer brands, negotiating and closing their largest, most complex commercial deals. Doug also advises clients on compliance with U.S. gaming and daily fantasy sports laws, corresponding legislative developments, training in-house legal and compliance teams on sports betting matters, and developing, drafting and enforcing corporate gambling policies.

Doug is known among his clients and peers as an approachable, trusted advisor and problem-solver, who closes deals by quickly identifying issues and providing practical, business-oriented solutions. With nearly a decade of in-house counsel experience, Doug understands and anticipates business needs to consistently drive efficient, valuable results.
