Team

Throughout my experiences in highly specialized departments of American and French law firms in Paris, I have gained in-depth knowledge of the technical complexities which are inherent to the technology and innovation fields. I know how to talk to technicians, project managers, field teams, buyers, in order to have a better understanding of the practical issues they are facing in their projects and to offer pragmatic and viable solutions.

I advise our clients in four main areas:

Protection, management and defense of intangible assets (copyright, trademarks, domain names): due diligence of intellectual property rights; IP protection strategy; IP prosecution; management of IP rights portfolios; assistance in the exploitation of rights (drafting and negotiation of assignment contracts, licensing agreements, R&D arrangements, etc.); implementation of dispute resolution procedures for domain names; copyright and trademark infringement litigation, as well as related unfair competition litigation.

IT and telecom: assistance in the implementation of IT projects and telecommunications infrastructures (drafting and negotiation of contracts, assistance in change management, implementation projects, migration, etc.); advice in information systems security and regulatory compliance; pre-litigation and litigation in IT and contractual matters.

Data: advice in data management and exploitation strategy; GDPR compliance projects; data protection officer missions; assistance before the supervisory authorities (notably the French data protection authority, CNIL); data privacy related documentation (data privacy policies, hosting agreements, agreements for the transfer of data outside the European Union, security and data retention policies); CNIL investigations; pre-litigation and litigation.

Media and e-commerce: advice in the development and implementation of digital projects (websites, marketplaces, mobile applications, online content publication); assistance in the exploitation of image rights and regulatory compliance; drafting of the online contractual documentation (general terms and conditions of sale, service, use, data privacy policies, legal notices); third-party agreements (drafting and negotiation of website development and maintenance agreements, hosting services agreements, Internet access services agreements, listing agreements); management of take-down notices; hosting services/publishers liability issues; pre-litigation and litigation relating notably to online content.
