Streaming Leader Identifies Privacy Counsel For Interim Support With Legalpeople
Problem
The global streaming market is now a multi-billion-dollar industry, providing online entertainment across audio and video to billions of users worldwide. One of our clients, a leader in the streaming space, decided to hire a Senior Product & Privacy Counsel to advise their product teams on privacy matters.
Our client was seeking a senior attorney to manage product counseling work, spanning across their commerce, viewer, and creator teams. The ideal candidate needed a history of working on issues such as moderation and regulatory compliance, as well as experience in leading projects and advising in-house clients on privacy matters.
Result
We identified an attorney with over 5 years of privacy experience in-house at technology companies and 9 years of commercial contracts experience working with technology clients while in BigLaw at Winston & Strawn (AmLaw 50).
Our client was extremely happy with our candidate. Their standard approach, relying on their hiring team or outsourcing work to a large firm, would have likely resulted in an overflow of work as they waited for the right candidate or an increase in spend on external counsel. Instead, using our Specialized Interim Attorney Services allowed them to continue their search for a permanent hire while still managing pressing privacy and product compliance issues.
