Washington, D.C. – May 1, 2018 /MarketersMedia/

Founder of Ifrah Law Jeff Ifrah, known as one of the leaders in the country for iGaming and eSports legal advice, plans to speak at the “eSports & the Legal Landscape: A Primer on the Emerging eSports Industry” webinar hosted by the American Bar Association.

Joined by attorney Bryce Blum, Jeff will discuss legal issues surrounding esports, including finance, immigration, gaming, gambling and betting, cyber security, business law, advertising, and underage play. Additionally, Jeff will provide a general overview of the current eSports market, discuss recent government and class action challenges, and provide predictions for the future of the industry.

“This year, eSports events have sold out Madison Square Garden, the Staples Center and Key Arena, and television broadcast viewership often exceeded that of many traditional sports like baseball and hockey. The global games market will generate $100 billion in revenues by the end of the year,” said Ifrah. “The industry’s meteoric rise comes with legal, social and regulatory challenges. “
