If you have suffered financial, emotional, or psychological harm as a result of online sports betting, contact Watts Law Firm to find out if you may have a claim.
Online sports betting has exploded into a $110 billion industry, driven by a small number of powerful corporations that rely on aggressive technology to fuel profits. These companies use machine learning and artificial intelligence to track user behavior, identify vulnerability, and push targeted promotions designed to keep people betting, even when it causes harm.
Studies show that compulsive gamblers are 15 times more likely to die by suicide than the general public. Among all forms of gambling, online sportsbooks carry the highest risk and are linked to faster, more destructive patterns of addiction. These platforms are not just addictive by design. They are engineered to exploit.
Who Are We After?
Watts Law Firm LLP is currently investigating claims against major online sportsbook operators, including FanDuel and DraftKings. We believe these companies have knowingly used predatory algorithms, exploitative VIP host programs, and deceptive promotions to addict users and conceal the true costs of betting.
Why Do We Fight?
This is not just about unfair advertising. It’s about product liability for software designed to find and feed addiction at the expense of the users. We believe in holding these companies accountable when profits are built on destruction. We are stepping in to support the affected where regulators have failed.
If you’ve suffered emotional, physical, or financial harm due to online sports betting addiction, Watts Law Firm is here to help. We pursue justice and compensation for individuals and families targeted and harmed by online sportsbooks.
Watts Law Firm Case Wins
We have a proven track record of success and securing maximum compensation.
No. We are pursuing mass tort litigation, not a class action. In a class action, every plaintiff is treated the same, and damages are distributed uniformly. Mass tort litigation allows each client’s experience and damages to be evaluated individually, while still coordinating efforts to establish liability against the same defendants.This structure offers two key benefits: individual attention to your case and the power of collective litigation. It also creates an economy of scale: plaintiffs share the cost of expert witnesses, discovery, and case development, which makes the litigation more efficient and cost-effective. That structure often allows clients to retain a greater portion of any recovery than they might through a standalone lawsuit.
We are evaluating claims from individuals who have suffered serious harm related to online sports betting or gambling platforms, including:
Individuals who were under the age of 18 when they began gambling
Individuals who have lost more than $75,000 through online gambling
Those diagnosed with a related injury, such as anxiety, depression, gambling addiction, self-harm, suicide attempt, or suicide
If you or someone you love fits one or more of these criteria, Watts Law Firm can review your circumstances and determine whether you may qualify to participate in ongoing litigation.
Preserving key documentation can make a substantial difference in building a strong case. Plaintiffs do not need to gather everything before reaching out, but the following types of evidence are particularly useful:
Screenshots or records of betting behavior and financial losses
Promotional messages, VIP host communications, or targeted deposit offers
Documentation of diagnoses or harm (e.g., medical, psychological, financial)
Watts Law Firm advances all necessary litigation costs. This is a contingency-fee representation. If there’s no recovery, you owe nothing. One of the key advantages of mass tort litigation is that expenses are shared across all plaintiffs. That means the cost of expert witnesses, discovery, and trial preparation is divided, not duplicated. As a result, each individual claimant may retain a greater portion of their recovery compared to the cost structure of a solo lawsuit. We invest heavily in the cases we believe in, and we fight to win.
