Simmons & Simmons

Eric is a partner in our Corporate and Commercial practice group in Paris, with a focus on digital business.

Eric thrives on developing innovative legal solutions for this rapidly evolving area, informed by his first-hand knowledge of the Technology, Media and Telecommunications (TMT) sector and its commercial challenges. He knows advanced technologies inside out, which means that Eric’s legal advice is as forward-thinking as the sector itself. He does not restrict himself to one-off high profile matters but addresses the more day-to-day challenges faced by our clients. That can be done through contract management, helping IT providers and clients alike to keep any kind of project on tracks in terms of cost, quality and deadline, eventually getting the best of it.

As well as being the firm’s go-to expert on cloud computing, Eric advises on all types of commercial contracts in the IT sector. He’s well-versed in data protection, cyber security, software licensing, procurement and regulatory matters. He is a leading expert on privacy and he guided a large number of clients through their GDPR implementation projects, whether it be as internal or external data protection officer (DPO).
