About

Provided by Rowan Legal

We are leading experts on legal aspects of TMT sector. Our clients are top ICT companies on the Czech market as well as ICT services recipients. We have proven our expertise in the telecommunications as well, where we primarily support our clients in the legal aspects of telecommunication services provision (internet connectivity, data networks, and information security) and compliance with regulatory requirements.

We also have a very strong data protection team. We have closely watched the development of the GDPR since the legislative process. From the beginning, we have been constantly informing the professional public about the consequences. At the same time, we provide strategic advice to associations and individual clients, both from the private and public sectors. We have a very strong team with an in-depth technical knowledge. We are authors of the first Czech Commentary on GDPR published in June 2017 by Wolters Kluwer. 

At ROWAN LEGAL we watch closely the latest development in the technology as well as in the law theory and therefore are able to anticipate the potential law issues of our clients. A strong focus is given to legal aspects of innovative new technologies, i.e. big data analysis, the internet of things and of course cybersecurity, and protection of personal data. ROWAN LEGAL's experts also have experience with dispute resolution in the ICT area as arbitrators.
