Information Technology Law

Information technology law regulates matters relating to information technology and combines sub-areas of public law, private law, and criminal law. However, the emergence of new technologies is currently initiating rapid changes in almost all legal areas. In this context, information technology aspects in particular play an important role.

Like most industries, the legal sector is thus affected by profound transformation processes related to new technologies and alternative business models. On the one hand, legal innovations help to reduce costs; on the other hand, they can increase productivity and provide the public with better access to legal advice. Thus, information technology and the legal sciences form an increasingly important interface.

The lawyers in our firm have extensive expertise in the areas of digitalization and information technology law. We monitor current technological developments and innovations in the regulation of technologies. We regularly publish on legal topics related to digital currencies, RegTech, LegalTech, artificial intelligence, automation and more. In particular, compliance aspects are the focus of our attention, but criminal law aspects can also be relevant, among others.

As a result, we have a deep understanding of emerging and innovative technologies and their impact on all sectors and industries. This understanding helps us to provide our clients with tailor-made solutions that always have their best interests in mind. Furthermore, our expertise covers all aspects of data protection law, IT law, labor law, regulations, and national and international standards.

We are happy to advise you on all legal issues related to information technologies. We support you in the development of corporate strategies, in the execution of complex transactions and more. You will benefit from our interdisciplinary approach, which does not neglect economic aspects. In all our consultations, the client's benefit is always our top priority. Even in contentious matters, our competent lawyers will represent you in an experienced and targeted manner before all Swiss courts and authorities. In doing so, we make full use of all legal means available to us. At this point, however, we would like to emphasize that we always strive for amicable solutions as a first step.
