A Boutique
Law Firm

We are a boutique lawfirm with a large footprint. Based in Silicon Valley, California, we have a comprehensive network of affiliates located on five continents. They have been selected carefully amongst the world’s leading privacy and security lawyers. The size of our firm varies with the engagement: for US law matters, our small group works on the project; for foreign law matters, we team up with our affiliates.

Focused on Privacy and Security

Founded by Francoise Gilbert in 2003, the IT Law Group is a law firm focusing on Information Privacy and Security at the domestic and global level.
We provide creative, practical, specialized, legal counsel and support to enable companies to successfully manage their compliance risks. We carefully weave privacy and security in all aspects of the business to minimize its exposure.

Flexible
and Innovative

Compliance must not be a straight jacket but an enabling tool. We take a pragmatic approach to our client’s problems.
We focus on the business goals. We develop innovative, practicable solutions that are adapted to the company’s unique needs, and help accomplish the business objectives while allowing the client to comply with the law.

For Global Privacy & Security Compliance

We wrote the book on how to address the challenges of compliance with global laws and regulations. Our innovative structure with affiliates on five continents allows us to offer a one-stop solution to data protection and data governance issues.
