An Intelligent Approach to Data


Cooley helps clients deal with all aspects of data. Data is the critical asset of every business. Managed correctly, it facilitates and harnesses effective growth, unlocking significant value. Managed inappropriately, it represents the most significant source of vulnerability. The traditional legal approach to data is one-dimensional and biased towards personal data. We believe there is a better way – one that is not simply about data protection, but the protection of data, as a business-critical asset.

We are different.

By organising our legal solutions by reference to the value of data and the use to which it is put in our client's business, we provide a unique, flexible and end-to-end approach to all our client's legal requirements.
