Gambling Crimes and Sports Betting Defense
Dowling Defense Group has represented and advised a number of individuals and businesses on compliance with state and federal gambling law.
Gambling is generally lawful, but only under certain circumstances and in certain places. For example, although North Carolina recently legalized sports betting, bets can only be placed by an individual who is physically present within the geographical jurisdiction of the state.
Federal law also criminalizes certain gambling activities, including operating an illegal gambling business.
Closely related to “gambling crimes” are more traditional crimes of fraud, money laundering, and operating an illegal money transmitting business. These crimes are often charged by federal prosecutors in gambling-related situations.
Dowling Defense Group regularly represents and advises individuals and businesses on matters related to avoiding exposure to criminal and civil liability in gambling matters.
