How Can We Help You Where Multiple Jurisdictions Are Involved?
We help our clients with their multi-jurisdictional matters (including GDPR) by: (i) having a single point of contact in London for a coordinated approach to any legal matters connected with their cross-borders projects; (ii) minimising regulatory and contractual risks; and (iii) reducing the time spent by management or by their legal departments in the legal aspects of these projects.
Telecoms, Technology and Media (“TMT”) projects are often cross-border in nature and often involve the processing of “Big Data”. Rolling out international communications services, launching apps/online solutions or merely processing data is likely to entail legal (including data protection & retention) implications in many diverse jurisdictions. Our firm’s experience in advising internationally has become increasingly important with the growth of IoT and the importance of GDPR compliance, which will also impact our clients based outside the EU.
Obtaining, managing and co-ordinating advice on a range of legal issues covering multiple jurisdictions can be a major challenge.Time is a valuable commodity to many of our clients’ fast evolving businesses, and we can help them to efficiently coordinate multi-jurisdictional projects, as the Preiskel & Co team provide a one-stop-shop for legal issues across the globe.
Our international team has considerable experience in managing and coordinating multi-jurisdictional legal projects for blue chip international clients as well as owner-managed clients. We assist clients with their legal and regulatory issues across the globe.
