Baker McKenzie routinely advises clients from the gaming and social media sectors on regulatory matters, including youth protection, content restrictions as well as advertising law and the team cooperates closely with the firm's M&A team in the course of media-related transactions. Counsel Sebastian Schwiddessen focuses on regulatory and transaction support and took over the role of practice head following the departure of e-commerce and data protection lawyer Holger Lutz, who moved to Clifford Chance in May 2023.
