He took a Master’s in Law at Veliko Tarnovo, then spent more than twelve years in gambling.
Momchil read Law at the University of Veliko Tarnovo from October 2008 to September 2013, leaving with a Master’s degree in Law (LL.M.). He joined iGaming.com in 2014 as a legal adviser and serves today as its Head of Legal.
His work covers gambling advertising and regulatory compliance, alongside corporate, contractual, data protection, negotiation and competition matters. Away from it he reads, rides his bicycle, plays football and swims.
As Head of Legal, Momchil’s role is to guide Casino.net on the legal and regulatory requirements relevant to its content and affiliate marketing activities. His priority is to help the team communicate clearly and responsibly.
His wider goal is to help the business develop responsibly, with legal considerations built into decisions from the outset, and to give colleagues clear, workable advice that supports what they are trying to do while addressing the risks that come with it, colleagues who are introduced in turn on the page about the people running Casino.net.
Momchil’s expertise centres on gambling advertising regulations and affiliate marketing compliance, developed through more than 12 years in the industry. Much of that compliance work sits close to the methodology that keeps those claims consistent. He assesses how legal requirements affect the way gambling services are presented and promoted, alongside related issues involving commercial agreements, data protection and competition law.
His approach is to translate complex legal requirements into practical guidance that editorial and commercial teams can actually use.
Never forget that a gambling experience should be nothing more than fun, and that you should at all times enter the casino only with money you can afford to lose.
the oldest dice found anywhere in the world are 12,000 years old, from well before the last ice age, which is a reminder that nobody can stop the social phenomenon of seeking the ultimate luck. What we can do, and what his personal mission is, is to make it safe, based on clear and workable rules that all parties can anticipate, a mission he ties directly to the mission statement behind the legal work.
