Gaming Questions & Answers
Q: Are there countries where Drafkings would be considered illegal?
Really, you expect an attorney in the US to know all the gambling laws of each country on the face of the earth? Good luck with that. What you want, I guess is for an attorney to do research, and that is not free.
Q: Can I run a video game tournament in Florida with prizes. What prizes can I offer, and can I charge a tournament fee?
You need to hire an attorney who has done all the paperwork associated with doing this sort of thing.
Q: Are gambling debts legally enforceable?
California court decisions have held and continue to hold that the California judicial system is not available to resolve gambling debts. However, you will have to consult with an attorney because the question you ask may not be as simple as that. Was the debt incurred on-line? At an Indian casino?
