About

Provided by Ifrah Law

Ifrah Law has represented online gaming clients since the inception of the industry and now represents many of the largest iGaming and online sports betting companies, ancillary service providers, and industry associations in the world, advising them on issues at the intersection of interactive gaming and government regulations.

The firm has represented clients in the sports betting arena, including FanDuel, FOXBet, Bet365, Playtech, Unikrn, WorldPay/FIS Global, and Sportradar, and advised startups in the eSports space, including both real money and skill-based p2p competition sites, on compliance with both state and federal law. Ifrah Law’s practice also extends to representing players and agents in the NFL, NBA, and NHL, teams in MLS and the WNBA.

The firm advises online casino operators, poker and fantasy sports sites, and payment processors on class action lawsuits, mergers and acquisitions, vendor and supplier issues, government investigations, and criminal matters. It also serves as Special Internet Counsel for the Delaware State Lottery. Jeff and his team have also gained a strong reputation in other innovative web-based industries such as payment processing and money transmission.
