Technology

Rapid development of new technologies provides many challenges to the interpretation and implementation of legislation in the information society. The development and exponential growth of digital services have urged countries to amend existing and launch new regulation, making a dynamic environment for both businesses and the legal sector. Being up to date with the recent international trends and developments, our work covers topics from the Internet of Things, AI and blockchain to advising on innovations, licensing, e-commerce, data protection, and ICT contracts. We believe that our clients need clear and concise advice in order to cope with legal challenges in an efficient and cost-effective manner.

When it comes to transactions in the tech industry, our team offers a multidisciplinary approach, which covers M&A, AML, data protection, information security, finance, public procurement, intellectual property, taxes, dispute resolution, and litigation.

Our team combines knowledge from a legal, tax, and compliance perspective and offers full  support in structuring compliant and efficient business practices. We cooperate with recognised experts who have in-depth experience with various technologies and with lawyers who hold master’s degrees in the fields of law and technology.
