Chaz has substantial experience in servicing clients in the gaming and entertainment industries. However, while focusing on these areas of law, Chaz has also gained significant experience in business development, business transactions, commercial litigation, asset protection, estate planning, campaign/election law, and intellectual property.

Chaz' experience in the entertainment industry spans nearly fifteen years. Prior to entering the study and practice of law, Chaz worked in the film and television industry as a grip, electrician and cameraman. A former film student and member of the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employes (IATSE), Chaz has worked on dozens of feature films, music videos, commercials, and television programs. In addition to his many credits as a film crewmember, Chaz previously managed his own production company, where he produced short films, music videos, and commercials. Today, Chaz provides legal services to producers, actors, filmmakers, and artists of all kinds.

Since entering the study and practice of law, Chaz has gained experience in government affairs, commercial litigation, corporate transactions, gaming, entertainment and many other areas of law. Prior to founding Rainey Legal Group, Chaz was the Legal Counsel to Brandywine Bookmaking, the owner/operator of Lucky's Race and Sports Books, handling the legal affairs of more than ten locations scattered throughout the State of Nevada. Since launching Rainey Legal Group, Chaz has expanded his practice to include a wide array of legal matters and disciplines. Chaz' clients include gaming companies, film producers, graphic designers, manufacturers, defense contractors, financial service providers, hospitality and tourism companies.

While in law school, Chaz served as a legal extern in the Washington, D.C. office of then Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid. He also served as a summer associate for the internationally known law firm of Greenberg Traurig, LLP. While in his third year of law school, Chaz clerked for a general practice attorney based in the Las Vegas Valley, where he gained exposure to a wide range of litigation matters, including contract disputes, workers compensation claims, and personal injury. Upon graduating from law school, Chaz accepted a position with the startup gaming company Brandywine Bookmaking, where he directly assisted the company's President and CEO in developing the venture from a simple concept to a licensed multi-million dollar gaming operation.

Chaz earned his undergraduate degree in English from the University of California, Berkeley, where he graduated with highest honors.
