Erica Okerberg thrives in complex, high stakes environments, making gaming law the perfect fit for her. She originally moved to Las Vegas to pursue gaming law and meet industry experts, and today, she ranks among them.
Okerberg has spent the last 11 years at Greenberg Traurig, where she has amassed an impressive record of success while rising to the position of vice chair of the firm’s Global Gaming Practice. “Because the gaming industry is always evolving and expanding, the industry needs knowledgeable lawyers to analyze and apply existing laws and regulations to new, innovative concepts,” Okerberg said. Solution-oriented and razor focused on her client’s goals, Okerberg loves tackling ever-changing challenges in the gaming industry.
She also seeks to provide the same support to others as she received as an aspiring attorney. She serves as a mentor for various associations of the UNLV William S. Boyd School of Law, such as the Gaming Law Advisory Board. Okerberg serves on the Executive Committee of the Gaming Law Section of the Nevada State Bar, a job that includes editing the Nevada Gaming Lawyer, and she serves as a member of Global Gaming Women and its Kick Up Your Heels Committee helping create development opportunities for women.
