About

Provided by CERHA HEMPEL

For decades, CERHA HEMPEL has been renowned for their expertise and strong client base in telecommunications and technology.


In addition to ongoing work for our legacy clients, we have experienced an extraordinarily dynamic growth in the IT, telecoms, technology, data privacy, and related strategic key sectors over the last years.

In reaction to that, we have adapted our structure by creating our Practice Group TMT, which combines lawyers from all departments relevant to TMT sector clients.


One of the particular strengths of our firm is that we are able to provide full service advice to TMT clients in all legal areas, including regulatory, antitrust, IP, IT, e-commerce, corporate and commercial, among other things, achieving synergetic effects as the ultimate benefit for our client base.
