Leili specialises in regulatory and commercial matters across the betting and gaming, sports, media and digital sectors.
“I trained at Wiggin, with experience spanning Betting & Gaming, Digital Commerce, Intellectual Property and Film & TV, alongside a secondment to Tottenham Hotspur FC. Working across these areas has given me a unique understanding of the regulatory and commercial issues facing businesses operating at the intersection of technology, media and entertainment.
Before joining Wiggin, I gained experience both in private practice and in-house, including at Guardian News & Media and Unilever. Having worked on both sides of the adviser-client relationship, I understand the competing pressures faced by in-house legal teams and the importance of advice that is not only legally sound, but practical, proportionate and sensitive to wider commercial priorities.
I particularly enjoy tackling novel and niche issues and finding practical solutions to complex regulatory and commercial problems. I thrive on understanding a client’s business and what they are looking to achieve, and helping them navigate legal and regulatory risk in a way that is commercially pragmatic and legally robust.”
