Expertise

Originally from Cologne, I began my legal career at a Berlin law firm specializing in press and media law. After earning an LL.M. in San Francisco and gaining experience in international data protection consulting, I now practice law in both Germany and the United States. In addition, I serve as an Adjunct Professor of Law at the University of California College of the Law, San Francisco (formerly UC Hastings), the oldest law school on the West Coast, where I teach courses on privacy law and AI compliance.

As a passionate soccer referee, to me, law is about fairness. Being dual-qualified in Germany and California, I regularly navigate complex cross-jurisdictional issues. My approach is to craft solutions that are tailored to each individual client and case. I am open to creative ideas, but I place equal value on reliable concepts. Active listening is central to my work. Substance beats style, and a well-defined problem is halfway to being solved.

My main areas of practice are data privacy and AI law. I am also passionate about competition and press law and am equally equipped to handle matters involving copyright, IP, or trademarks. I advise clients across all areas of Californian and German law and am committed to supporting the development of robust compliance strategies.

Science & Research

During my early time in California, I had the opportunity to support Prof. Dr. Lothar Determann in his work on the fifth edition of “California Privacy Law,” a leading reference on the subject. This successful collaboration also opened the door for me to design and teach new types of online courses at UC Law SF (formerly UC Hastings), the oldest law school on the West Coast.

Since September 2023, I have been serving as an Adjunct Professor of Law at UC Law SF. My teaching focuses on imparting highly practical, application-oriented knowledge in the fields of international data privacy and artificial intelligence. This approach reflects my belief that abstract legal knowledge alone is not sufficient to succeed in such interdisciplinary and rapidly evolving fields of law.
