Dickinson Wright PLLC is pleased to announce that Jeffrey A. Silver, Gaming and Administrative Law Of Counsel in the firm’s Las Vegas office, will be inducted into the American Gaming Association’s (AGA) Gaming Hall of Fame during the Chairman’s Reception at the Global Gaming Expo on October 5, 2021. Jeffrey is one of three inductees in the 2020 class. This year, the 2020 and 2021 induction ceremonies will be combined, honoring a total of six inductees.
Silver is being recognized for his 50-year legal career that has reached every aspect of the gaming industry from regulatory to casino operations to legal and liquor licensing. He has served as a Chief Deputy Criminal Prosecutor and the person in charge of the Consumer Fraud and White Collar Crimes Division of Clark County District Attorney’s office, the resident Member of the Las Vegas office of the Nevada Gaming Control Board (which occurred during the State’s tumultuous period of cleansing the gaming industry of its organized crime influence), as well as holding top leadership positions at resort hotels including the Landmark Hotel & Casino, the Riviera Hotel & Casino and Caesars Palace.
“I am deeply honored to be selected by the American Gaming Association to its Gaming Hall of Fame and especially proud to join such a distinguished list of inductees who have all made significant contributions to the gaming industry,” said Silver.
Aristocrat Technologies CEO and AGA Chairman of the Board Trevor Croker said, “This year’s honorees have been key players in proving that gaming is a world-class entertainment experience. We’re proud to recognize them and the important role they’ve played shaping gaming into the dynamic industry it is today.”
Since its establishment in 1989, the Gaming Hall of Fame has honored more than 80 leaders who have distinguished themselves through significant contributions to the gaming industry, including pioneers in commercial and tribal gaming, gaming regulation, casino technology and sports betting.
