GamblingLawsuits.org publishes court cases about gambling under one editorial rule: what the record says, in the words the record uses, with nobody paying for any of it. Anyone can check that on any page.
What is published, and in which words
Every court case whose subject is gambling is published, and a pending case is described by the step it has reached: a complaint states one side's allegations, only the court's orders decide anything. The scope runs across all gambling lawsuits by category.
Every payout figure is a payout estimate with its formula, and a case is called a settlement once the court has approved one.
A settlement "is set to pay" only "if the court grants final approval" until payments are made: the Pulsz six-state settlement accepts claims to 30 November 2026 and awaits its fairness hearing on 31 December 2026, so no page says it has paid.
A pleaded amount is a pleading: New York's complaint against Kalshi seeks at least USD 36 billion pending accounting, as pleaded, and the pages say so in those terms. Reader-reported payout figures are reported as reader reports, never as administrator figures.
Independence and funding
GamblingLawsuits.org is a non-commercial project. It takes no money from operators, affiliates or law firms. No operator is linked, not even as a source.
Nothing on the site can therefore be bought: no listing, link, ranking or correction. No "sponsored" or "recommended" label exists on any page. The full rules are in our charter: no operators, no ads, no law-firm money.
Authorship and review
Pages are published under the byline GamblingLawsuits.org Editorial Team, and no page names an expert, a reviewer or an advisory board that does not exist.
Every value is checked against the named primary document, each case shows whether its status was read from the court record, and every unconfirmed point is listed as open. The checks are described in methodology: how every case is sourced and checked.
People and companies named on this site
Cases are titled as the court captions them, with the common short name as the display name, and German and Austrian decisions keep their German citation.
A person or company charged with a crime is "charged" until the record says "convicted": Arizona's criminal case against Kalshi (CR2026-000173, 20 misdemeanor counts, filed 16 March 2026 and stayed under a federal injunction) is allegations only; no conviction exists.
Operators, administrators and law firms
No gambling operator, bookmaker, casino, sweepstakes or prediction-market site is linked anywhere on this site, not even as a source, and filing a claim in any settlement is free. The steps are explained in how to file a claim in a gambling settlement.
Settlement administrators are named exactly as the court's notice names them and the official claim site is linked; this site never hosts a claim form. Each administrator is described in settlement administrators handling gambling cases.
Where a reader needs a lawyer the page points to the class counsel named in the docket or to the bar association referral service of the state or country, never to a firm or a litigation funder.
In Germany and Austria funders take 32 to 47 percent of a recovery, and no neutral record should steer a reader into that choice, as litigation funders and online casino claims in Germany explains.
Corrections and updates
Every page carries the date it was published, the date it was last changed and the date its facts were last checked, and a newer court order, administrator notice or regulator release beats anything already on the page.
Each fix is listed with its date on the public log of corrections. A correction is made when a primary document shows an error, whoever reports it.
Advertising, affiliates and data
This site carries no advertising, no affiliate deals and no sponsored content, and it sells no reader data and no leads.
Questions people ask
Does GamblingLawsuits.org recommend lawyers or claim services?
No. Where a case needs a lawyer the page names the class counsel appointed in the docket or points to the bar association referral service of the state or country; no firm, funder or claims platform is recommended.
Why is a case called a "settlement" and not a "lawsuit"?
Because once a court has approved a settlement the lawsuit is over and what remains is a claims procedure with a deadline, and the page title says so. See open gambling class action settlements by deadline.
Can an operator or a law firm pay for a listing, a link or a correction?
No. The site takes no money from operators, affiliates or law firms, and a correction is made when a primary document shows an error, whoever reports it. See our charter: no operators, no ads, no law-firm money.
Why does a case page show a payout estimate and not an amount?
Because the share per person depends on the number of valid claims and on the fee and cost awards the court approves, neither of which is known before the deadline; the page shows the estimate with its formula. The method is in class action payout per person.
How do I request a correction?
Use the corrections link on the page concerned, name the value and the document that contradicts it, and the fix with its date appears on the corrections page.
