Transforming complex data protection laws into practical solutions for tech companies

About

I'm an EU privacy attorney and help tech founders use data protection as a competitive advantage rather than viewing it as a roadblock.⁣ I founded Nor Law after years at a top American firm, because I wanted to give innovative tech start-ups the same access to top-quality privacy advice that Fortune 500 companies get, but in a way that makes sense for their reality.

Practice areas

  • Employment Law > Workplace Privacy
  • Data Privacy > Data Breaches
  • Data Privacy > Data Transfer Agreements
  • Data Privacy > GDPR
  • Data Privacy > Int'l Privacy

Services

  • Privacy compliance

    I provide advice and assistance to companies in relation to their compliance with EU privacy and data laws, including the EU AI Act, the Data Act and, of course, the GDPR.

  • Contract negotiations

    Drafting and negotiating data protection terms in (global) contracts.

  • Product & tech counseling

    I ensure that new products or technology are developed with privacy principles in mind.
