Client feedback is published here as clients approve it. ## Representative Matters Examples of the legal strategy we provide for gaming operators, AI and startup companies, and sports, athletes, and creators. Gaming Law ### Navigating Multi-State Expansion for Gaming Operators #### Challenge Skill-based gaming platforms face complex, state-by-state regulatory frameworks that can delay expansion and create compliance risk without proper legal infrastructure. #### Solution We conduct 50-state regulatory surveys, design scalable compliance frameworks, manage multi-jurisdiction licensing questions, and monitor regulatory change so clients can anticipate it instead of reacting to it. #### Outcome This approach helps gaming operators expand across multiple states while managing compliance risk and staying positioned for institutional investment. Gaming Regulatory Compliance AI & Startup Counsel ### Fixed-Fee Outside Counsel for a Growing AI Company #### Challenge A tech company scaling its AI product needed ongoing legal support for commercial contracts, IP protection, and vendor agreements without the cost of a full-time general counsel. #### Solution We serve as fixed-fee outside counsel—reviewing and drafting commercial contracts, protecting IP, and flagging risk in vendor and customer agreements as the business grows. #### Outcome The company gets senior legal judgment on every matter, with predictable engagement terms and no billable-hour surprises. AI & Startups Outside Counsel Sports, Athletes & Creators ### Structuring NIL and Revenue-Share Agreements for Athletes #### Challenge College athletes need to monetize NIL and revenue-share opportunities while protecting their personal brands for the long term. #### Solution We review and negotiate NIL and revenue-share agreements, structure licensing terms for merchandise and digital products, and help athletes build defensible brand protection around their name and image. #### Outcome Athletes are able to capture current NIL value while building a brand and business structure that holds up over time. Sports NIL Brand Protection **Representative Examples:** The matters described above are illustrative examples of the types of legal services we provide and the strategies we employ.
