Hensel Grad and USAbility strike alliance to ‘streamline’ US advice

Hensel Grad PC has struck a strategic alliance with USAbility to aid igaming companies seeking to enter the US gambling sector. 

US-based gaming law and advisory consultancy Hensel Grad PC has struck a strategic alliance with USAbility to aid igaming companies seeking to enter the US gambling sector. 

The collaboration between the two is said to result in services “streamlined” for an online gaming company’s ability to enter and become competitive in the US igaming space. 

“This is a clear example of the sum being greater than the parts,” said Susan Hensel, Co-founder and Partner of Hensel Grad.

“Hensel Grad is a firm established by former gaming regulators to assist gaming companies in navigating the often complex and disparate US state-based regulatory environment. 

“By integrating our services with an award-winning technical compliance provider, we provide an efficient, one-stop, on-ramp for companies interested in establishing a US presence or growing an existing business into additional jurisdictions.”

The alliance is said to aim at assisting companies offering igaming, including sports wagering and online casino associated products in the US, with growth in North America projected to continue with additional state authorising and launching sports wagering and icasino beyond 2022. 

By joining forces, Hensel Grad and USAbility will provide end-to-end support and guidance as the companies state that the link-up will “eliminate the need” for firms to “waste time” identifying an advisory team.

Avi Howard, Co-founder of USAbility Digital, added: “We are very excited about the alliance with Hensel Grad. USAbility is a very unique business in the gambling industry, providing the broadest range of services and expertise for businesses in the North American online gambling market. 

“Our ever growing portfolio of clients entering into or expanding within the region benefit from our technical, product, compliance and delivery advisory. Considering their strong US regulatory background, working together with Susan, Joe, and their team will complete our offering by providing hands-on legal, compliance and regulatory relations support and advisory services. 

“We are confident that this partnership will create an unparalleled suite of services in the marketplace.”
