2. Specialization in IT and media law with technical understanding
3. Comprehensive advice from the perspective of an experienced entrepreneur
4. Individual solutions and strategic partnership
4.1. Author: Marian Härtel

The rapid development in the technology sector is constantly presenting companies with new challenges and opportunities. As a lawyer who not only has legal expertise, but also programming skills and a keen interest in current IT magazines and industry trends, I offer a comprehensive understanding of both the legal and technological facets that shape modern businesses. This combination of legal expertise and technical insight makes me particularly qualified to effectively advise and support start-ups in the areas of SaaS, artificial intelligence, game development and new forms of media.

Key Facts
  • Specialization in IT and media law with technical understanding for modern companies.
  • Preparation of legal documents that take into account legal standards and technical requirements.
  • Comprehensive advice for start-ups during the founding and scaling phase.
  • Development of customized service level agreements for SaaS and AI projects.
  • Support in the gaming industry: license agreements and copyright issues.
  • Individual solutions and strategic partnership to promote growth and success.
  • Free initial consultation to discuss legal solutions for start-ups.

Specialization in IT and media law with technical understanding

My in-depth knowledge of IT and media law, coupled with a deep understanding of technical concepts, puts me in a unique position to create legal documents that not only meet legal standards, but also accurately capture and reflect the specific needs and characteristics of your technology project. This includes navigating the complex areas of copyright law, data protection regulations, licensing issues and compliance with industry standards. My specialization in IT and media law means that I have a deep understanding of the unique legal challenges faced by startups in these dynamic sectors.

In addition, my ability to penetrate technical concepts and business models is crucial for drafting contracts that are both legally robust and practicable. I ensure that the technical aspects of a project are adequately reflected in the contracts in order to minimize risks and support the company’s technological vision.

My experience in the startup landscape, complemented by my own entrepreneurial career, enables me to advise startups comprehensively – from the founding phase to scaling. I understand the challenges that founders face and can therefore offer customized, practical solutions.

As a strategic partner for your company, I not only contribute my legal expertise, but also my entrepreneurial experience. This combination allows me to think outside the box and offer strategic advice aimed at growing your business and ensuring long-term success. In this way, I can not only provide your company with legal protection, but also help it to develop its full technological and business potential.

Comprehensive advice from the perspective of an experienced entrepreneur

With my many years of experience as an entrepreneur, I am deeply immersed in the world of start-ups and therefore understand first-hand the challenges and needs that arise in this dynamic environment. This experience enables me to support you not only during the critical start-up phase, but also throughout the entire growth process of your company. I am at your side as a legal advisor and strategic partner, speaking the language of technology as well as that of entrepreneurship.

My work covers various aspects of technology law that have proven themselves in practice. For example, when drafting SaaS contracts, I have developed customized service level agreements (SLAs) and data protection clauses that meet both the legal requirements and the individual needs of the respective SaaS platform. In AI development projects, I advise on the drafting of research and development contracts, paying particular attention to the aspects of intellectual property and compliance with data protection regulations.

In the gaming industry, I support my clients in drafting license agreements, clarifying copyright issues and advising on compliance with specific youth protection laws. In addition, I am able to navigate innovative media projects through the ever-changing demands of media law by providing customized contractual solutions that are both current and future-proof.

In all of these areas, I bring my extensive business and legal experience to bear to ensure that the legal strategies and structures I develop for you are not only legally sound, but also tailored to the specific needs of your business. In this way, I support you in placing your company on a solid legal footing and leading it to sustainable success.

Individual solutions and strategic partnership

My goal is to be far more than just your legal advisor; I strive to become your strategic partner supporting you in the dynamic world of technology. I invite you to get in touch with me and discover how I can help your startup succeed in a free, no-obligation initial consultation. In this meeting, we can discuss together how I can support you in successfully positioning and developing your company in the tech world. Together, we can develop customized legal solutions that will give your company a decisive competitive advantage.

As an IT-savvy lawyer with extensive corporate experience, I understand the legal and technological challenges facing your startup. My approach combines legal advice with strategic support in order to optimally accompany your company on its path to success. Take the opportunity to find out in an informative initial consultation why I, as an IT nerd and lawyer, am the right choice for your project. This initial consultation is completely free of charge for you! Let’s set the course together for a successful and innovative future for your company.
