IT & E-Commerce Law
Our firm offers comprehensive legal services in the field of Information Technology and E-Commerce, providing strategic advice and practical solutions to digital businesses, software developers, platform providers, and online retailers.
Top-tier practice and outstanding track record
Our digital and technology law practices are consistently ranked among the top in Hungary by Chambers and Partners and Legal 500. This recognition reflects our extensive and sustained work in advising leading technology companies, online marketplaces, digital platforms, and regulated service operators on the legal implications of digital transformation, e-commerce operations, and IT regulation.
Beyond legal advice: industry-specific know-how
We offer more than traditional legal advice. Our team combines legal precision with deep industry insight, developed through long-standing experience with platform architecture, software development lifecycles, and digital service delivery models. We regularly collaborate with clients’ IT, compliance, and operational teams to provide tailored, implementable legal solutions that align with technical and commercial realities. Our knowledge of emerging regulatory obligations – such as those under the Digital Services Act (DSA) and electronic communication regulations – ensures that we can guide clients through both strategic planning and day-to-day legal compliance.
