Our experienced team of data protection solicitors provides specialist legal advice to employers on all aspects of information law and data protection compliance.
Our experience in the education, technology, healthcare and local government sectors means that we frequently come across unusual and challenging data protection and information law issues.
Our data protection solicitors provide specialist advice on a range of information law and compliance issues, including:
The Information Commissioner, who regulates data protection compliance, has the power to fine organisations up to £17.5 million for serious breaches of the data protection law. We have considerable expertise and experience in helping our clients manage Information Commissioner investigations and have a proven track record of avoiding the more serious penalties, such as large fines.
An increasing number of individuals are exercising their right to request information from organisations under the GDPR (for example, employees may request information from their employer). Often, individuals use this right to obtain information which might help fuel a complaint against the organisation. We can advise you on how to manage these requests in a way that protects your interests while still complying with data protection law.
We advise on many common data protection compliance issues, such as information sharing, CCTV, marketing issues, overseas transfers, and data security.
We also advise on freedom of information law (including the Freedom of Information Act and the Environmental Information Regulations).
As well as specialist data protection advice, we can also offer you a number of data protection legal services including; training, audits, template policies and procedures (including template fair processing statements and document retention policies).
