Gaming law is the set of rules and regulations that apply to the gaming or gambling industry. Lawyers who practice gaming law handle cases involving casinos, racetracks, state lottery revenue distribution, and more. Because gaming activity is heavily regulated under federal and state laws, gaming law attorneys may represent clients before government commissions and regulatory agencies.
