Lotteries, Trade & Consumer Promotions
Leading expertise, quickly and on budget
Promotions, competitions, give-aways and lotteries are governed by complex Federal, State and Territory laws and regulations. Legal compliance is difficult and may expose businesses to risk and adverse publicity when an in-market activation or promotion goes wrong.
We are specialists in lotteries and trade promotions law both in Australia and New Zealand and our services are designed to help you navigate the legal issues and regulatory environment in a timely and cost-effective way.
We have developed strong relationships with all Australian and New Zealand gaming authorities and provide full permit management.
