Welcome to SecondSight Law

Customer Focused Legal Advice |
Antitrust Guidance |
For twenty years my mission has been to provide practical advice to companies - spanning from small startups to publicly traded leaders of industry. After years as a partner at a leading technology law firm, I founded SecondSight Law to provide top tier legal support on privacy and antitrust matters, without the bureaucracy and fee structure that drive large firms.
PrivacyInformation Privacy and Data Security are now an essential part of running a business anywhere in the world. Virtually any use of customer data puts you under the coverage of the GDPR if you are handling the data of anybody located in the EU - even if your website is simply processing the data of all comers and has no other contacts with the EU. The demands of the GDPR are significant (such as the need to inform appropriate government authorities of data breaches no later than 72 hours after discovery) and violation of GDPR requirements means you face fines of up to 4% of your company's total annual revenues or 20 million euros (approximately $23 million), but with actual exposure reduced by quick and effective advice.
With the passage of the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, larger companies or those which process a significant amount of consumer information will face significant additional obligations, and compliance will require careful advance planning to stay on the right side of law. |
SecondSight provides practical advice to navigate the antitrust rules. Understanding those rules is key to safely interacting with your customers and suppliers, for licensing IP, and in all aspects of your transactions -- from negotiating deals right up to receving approval from the regulators so that your transactions can close. Across the entire antitrust landscape you get twenty years of focused experience.
