Figuring Out the Details

Legal problems, questions, and issues plague online casino gambling companies, and to reign in the costs of out-sourcing legal advice, many companies are now actively building their own in-house team of lawyers. Party Gaming just recently announced the hiring of a new addition to the company’s legal team. Victoria Allison is now a permanent part of the Party Gaming team, and is particularly needed as the online casinos gambling company strives to avoid any legal issues in the coming years in light of the ongoing problems with the U.S. government.

In 2006 the United States passed a ban on foreign online casinos gambling companies accessing the U.S. market. At that point, the majority of the internet gambling companies, including Party Gaming, exited the U.S. market. And though withdrawing from the U.S. gambling industry meant a significant decline in both market and revenue, the company voluntarily pulled out in light of the new U.S. legislation. But that hasn’t meant that the online casinos company is free from U.S. legal action – ongoing legality issues between the U.S. and Party Gaming are a contributing factor to the company’s decision to create a solid in-house legal team.

The Assistant General Counsel at the Party Gaming online casinos gambling, James Elliot, noted that the company felt that daily legal assistance would allow Party Gaming to “limit…outsourcing only to where there's a requirement for specialist knowledge that it does not make sense to retain in-house." Allison will live in Gibraltar and operate out of the main Party Gaming offices serving as the daily liaison for future legal concerns as well as assist the company in ironing out the issues with the U.S.
