recommended in the field of "IT". "Heuking Kühn Lüer Wojtek's IT Practice increasingly includes matters of privacy and IT compliance, oftentimes in collaboration with the Criminal and Tax Practice. As an example, the firm was retained by GSI to draft an IT compliance manual. In the field of IT security systems, a large German insurance company is advised on drafting a comprehensive IT security concept. At the interface between media and telecommunications, Thalia is advised as part of its collaboration with Weltbild and Deutsche Telekom on the digital distribution of eBooks. In addition, Autobahn Tank & Rast and long-standing client Applied Materials are advised."

recommended in the field of "Medien / Technologie /Kommunikation". "Highly regarded firm for IT matters, which closely works from its TMT practice. It benefitted once again when retained by Eutelsat in the much-discussed Kabel Deutschland/Tele Columbus proceedings. But also pure IT law matters played a larger role in practice, such as in the Euro-Druck-Service conciliation proceedings. Advice on cloud computing, where Heuking was increasingly active in privacy matters, remains a solid mainstay. The fact that the practice is additionally retained on attractive topics such as IT compliance, BYOD and social media, is demonstrated by the advice to GSI, for which it is working on matters of IT compliance."
