Legal assessment
Online casino offers aimed at Austrian players require a licence in Austria. Without this licence under the Gambling Act, the underlying contract is void. According to settled OGH case law, losses can be reclaimed retroactively for up to thirty years.
Sports betting in Austria, unlike online casinos, is in principle legal. A reclaim is possible via the partial legal incapacity under Section 865 Austrian Civil Code. The pathological gambling addiction during the loss period is established by an expert opinion in the proceedings, and we organise the specialist medical report together with you after you have given us the assignment. A claim is generally economically viable from around 50,000 euros in losses per provider.
The route to court applies regardless of where the betting provider is based. Even online betting providers licensed in Austria can be sued, as long as the betting relationship arose online. Betting shops with cash on site are a different constellation.
How we proceed
The assessment of your case is free of charge. If successful, R. M. Prozessfinanzierung GmbH retains from 35 percent of the amount obtained, the remaining amount goes to the enquiring person. The legal representation is handled by cooperating lawyers. We bear the costs of the proceedings.
