TMT
Regulatory stalwart Bermúdez & Esguerra Abogados fields ‘the strongest team in the market for data protection’, according to many. The TMT practice specialises in data protection and privacy law, with significant experience in advising clients in the telecoms and e-commerce spheres. It also handles cybersecurity matters — including data breaches — and consumer protection-related issues. A former Deputy Superintendent for Personal Data Protection, department co-head José Alejandro Bermudez is praised as ’the main reference in Colombia for privacy and personal data law’. Fellow co-head Carlos Esguerra is also recommended for data protection matters.
