About

Provided by Bird & Bird

We have been active in the field of data protection for over 25 years. We boast one of the largest practices in Europe and Asia Pacific, with over 130 lawyers whose main practice is data protection. We have a deep understanding of changes in technology and law.


Our clients often collect large quantities of sensitive data and are high profile businesses, for whom the disclosure or misuse of data will have severe ramifications. Our team has the expertise to help clients use their data and respond to regulatory scrutiny. A number of our lawyers are former members of data protection authorities such as the ICO, the DPC in Ireland and the CNIL, so we have a better insight that many into how this complex area of law is likely to be enforced.  


Some of our lawyers have also spent time in-house, giving the team extensive hands-on experience, and reinforcing a pragmatic, collaborative approach to providing legal services for our clients.
