I won't comment on the topic itself, except to say good luck to you guys. I think even 50% is too little But that's just by the way

Everyone can think about it as he wants. I personally don't care how someone sees it. It's just counterproductive when in every thread where it's about reclamation, the same people immediately buzz out to put down the thread creator.


The TE has already decided to initiate a clawback and is asking for information here. The private opinion, how someone sees this morally, helps the TE exactly zero.

Does this only apply to deposited money? For example, what about money that has been won but gambled away?

Example: Mr. X. has won 10k€ with a 50€ deposit. However, he never paid it out, but gambled it away little by little. Can he claim it back?

No. You can only get back directly lost money.


Example: You have paid in 10,000 € and paid out 5,000 €. So you can claim back 5.000 €.

I thought because it was at least for a while as a credit on the account. So in principle, it is quite simple to see what went in, what went out.

Exactly. Only the actual total loss is refunded.


This is because there was no legally valid contract and thus there is no valid business agreement. The casino's payouts are already part of your money, so to speak, and the loss is thus illegally retained money. The casino therefore has no right to keep your money and will be obliged to repay you.

i see exactly the same but if certain contributions are removed / deleted then the whole has nothing to do with freedom of speech but rather with censorship.

I find the topic, legally speaking, quite interesting. I'm generally not a friend of this lawsuit, is out of the question for me, but can also understand somewhere that there are players who see it differently.

Are any taxes subsequently deducted from the amount claimed? Or from the 40% or 50% that you get back in the end? That would still be the hit, but I could imagine it.

No. The money paid in is normally already taxed money and you only get your own money back, so to speak.


The process financier has to pay tax on his share, of course, because it is new income for him.

And does the law firm then deduct the cost of the lawsuit and the work from the actual recovery or does the client then have to advance that before the gambling houses pay?

I am on 3 casinos, 2x with 40% prov. and 1 time with 30% prov.
With the latter is even already a comparison offer 😉
Info gladly per pn, since I do not advertise for it

No, you don't have to pay anything. That's the whole point of a litigation funder, after all.


The litigation financier pays your attorney's fees, any court costs, etc. So he advances the money. The lawyer then gets this money back from the casino, because they have to pay all the costs if they lose.

You just wait for your money to arrive. The lawyer or PF then splits the money right away, so he takes his percentages and transfers the remaining amount to you.

In some cases, you may have to appear in court. The hearing usually lasts only 15 - 30 minutes. But that is all you might have to do. Nothing more. And the hearing always takes place at your place. So you don't have to travel far for the hearing.

Why should you give up your claims. If the law agrees with you. As I said, with me the chances of success are good. And I am happy if I get a part of my losses back. So the 40% success fee you think is justified and acceptable? or are there other service providers who are just as successful and have a better price?

You mean 40% goes to the process financier and 60% to you? That's ok. There are slightly better offers between 30% and 35%, but all contracts are roughly in this range.
