Data, IT and Technology
The digital world doesn’t stay still for long. It is constantly evolving and so too is our experienced and specialist legal team. Â
We rely on technology, IT and the transfer of data online more than ever before, which inevitably leads to an increased risk of data breaches occurring. This has led to an overhaul of data protection laws in Europe, as the GDPR was introduced on 25 May 2018.Â
How can we help you:
Data Protection Breach Solicitors >Â
