The Chambers Guide, which lists the top attorneys in 175 countries, determines ranks by independent research carried out during the prior 12 months. The results are compiled in the Chambers Global, USA and UK directories. Recognized as the industry standard, the Chambers Guide ranks attorneys in every major practice area, as well as key specialty practices from over 14,000 in-depth interviews with lawyers and clients.
For the first time, Chambers Global listed attorneys in the gaming law practice area. Of the 24 attorneys listed worldwide, 18 are IMGL members.
These include:International Casino Law
and Regulation Loose Leaf Service
For the first time ever, lawyers and other gaming professionals
can access gaming law and regulatory papers from around
the world in one place.
The International Casino Law and Regulation loose leaf service
compiles the most up-to-date regulatory information written
by members of the International Masters of Gaming Law, a
non-profit educational organization composed of leading
gaming lawyers throughout the world.
The loose-leaf service includes three volumes divided by
continent of origin. What makes the literature important to
gaming law professionals is that updated information is
added and revised periodically, thus providing lawyers and
other gaming professionals with content relevant to current
business practice.
Each chapter is written by the leading gaming attorney in the jurisdiction. The chapters follow the same outline to promote easy comparisons of the laws of the different jurisdictions.
Volume 1: North America, includes Alberta, Arizona, British
Columbia, California, Michigan, Nevada, New Jersey, North
Dakota, Ontario, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. The
remaining major United States commercial gaming
jurisdictions will be added to Volume 1 in the second half
of calendar year 2007.
Volume 2 compiles European jurisdictions currently involved
in gaming, which include Germany, Isle of Man, the Netherlands
and Portugal. The list of covered European countries will
increase as gaming laws and regulatory structures change and
expand into other jurisdictions.
Volume 3, called "Rest of the World," includes Macau and
South Africa.
