‘The ES Cyber Law team is very experienced and has global coverage which is a huge benefit to global technology companies. Importantly, the ES team has associate/counsel level experience working directly for several of the largest global Big Tech companies in the form of secondees which gives them an understanding of the businesses and people with whom they work. This type of experience is very difficult to develop when only serving as outside counsel but provides great value to their clients long after the secondments end.’
‘Michael Bahar and Alexander Sand are exceptional in their depth of knowledge, understanding of complex information systems and responsiveness. They truly feel like partners in the process.’
