Christian Schultz, LL.M. (King's College London)

My main areas of practice

I am a certified expert in IT law and a specialist for technology-related disputes. As a litigator, I advise companies in disputes on digital business models, software and the use of data. I assist online platforms, software providers and companies operating in regulated digital markets both in and out of court, for example in contentious IT projects, data protection disputes or the legal management of IT security incidents. These disputes often touch on the very core of my clients’ business models.

Outside the courtroom, I advise companies on the implementation of increasingly complex EU digital regulations, including the Digital Services Act, the Data Act and new requirements under consumer law. My direct experience in court proceedings provides particular added value for my clients: our advice focuses on areas where compliance with these regulations leads to conflicts in practice and is enforced through the courts – particularly in the form of strategic actions brought by consumer organisations or class action plaintiffs.

I advise my clients in German and English.
