I am Fieldfisher’s US Managing Partner. I am a Foreign Legal Consultant registered with the State Bar of California.

I’m one of a few leading EU privacy and technology specialists based full time in Silicon Valley. My daily workload focusses on data compliance projects and EU technology transactions (particularly those with a disruptive component).

For 20 years I have been advising clients selling and buying technology and on the regulations that may impact these sales and solutions. I have particular expertise where cloud, digital and online technologies converge and leverage data in order to deliver value. I spend a lot of time helping US businesses understand and grow in European markets. I negotiate deals; help explain and comply with regulations and work to explain compliance in order to reduce friction in the contracting process.

With EU/US personal data exchanges so fundamental to US technology offerings, a large proportion of my time is spent assisting with large global data transfer projects, GDPR “readiness”, internal governance and accountability structures and on data protection risk management. I also know my way around Europe’s consumer and internet laws.

WHAT CLIENTS SAY

"Mark provides practical advice in a way that’s workable for us, for our organization."
"First and foremost he keeps our business needs in mind; he's like a member of our internal team."


MY CLIENT PHILOSOPHY

"For 20 years I have been advising clients involved in selling and buying technology on the regulations that may impact upon these technologies and transactions. Europe is a hot target market for many US-based businesses, but the regulatory framework is quite different to the US and fast-moving to boot, so I spend a lot of time helping US businesses understand how to access and grow in European markets. I work closely with my clients to negotiate the deals they want to do, and help explain the regulations so my clients know what they need to do to comply. This helps reduce friction in the contracting process."
