I bring years of experience as Head of Legal & Compliance and as a business lawyer working directly with boards, founders and investors. I build legal functions, workflows and operating standards while remaining close to contracts, transactions, products, regulation and disputes. My perspective connects technology and innovation with industry, infrastructure, public procurement, media and commercial litigation.
I do not stop at identifying risk. I structure the options, recommend a course of action and help carry it through.
Two ways of working together
They differ not in subject matter, but in how much responsibility I carry.
External Head of Legal — ownership of the legal function, without building a department.
For companies whose scale needs more than occasional advice but does not yet justify a full-time head of legal. I take responsibility for legal as a whole: identifying and prioritising risk, negotiating the agreements that matter, corporate governance, supervising disputes and specialist counsel, implementing policies and reporting to the board. I work directly with the management board, the CFO or the group's legal team — the way an in-house lawyer does.
External legal partner — ongoing or project-based support for day-to-day business.
For companies whose legal support is already in place and who need something specific: a transaction, an agreement, a regulatory question, a dispute, or entry into a new market. Scope is agreed at the start — from standing cooperation in selected areas to a single project with a defined beginning and end.
