Steven helps guide clients through the state gaming licensing process, including in the states of New Jersey and Pennsylvania. He advises on the appropriate application requirements and reviews the draft applications before filing with the state gaming regulator.

After filing the application, Steven continually guides the client through any follow-up requests by regulators and diligently works to ensure the application process goes as smoothly as possible for the client.

In particular, Steven has assisted foreign clients in navigating their initial entry into the U.S. gaming market, which has unique quirks that often differ from the foreign gaming jurisdictions in which the foreign companies are already operating. Often, foreign companies are unfamiliar with the multiple layers of requirements imposed by state regulators and on the interaction between federal and state requirements.
