Director and Dr. Sebastian Schmitz as a Managing Director in its

“The legal and regulatory landscape in Germany has been in a
state of significant change over the past year, which has driven
new risks and investigation complexities for our clients,” said
Sophie Ross, Global Chief Executive Officer of FTI
Technology. “Greater scrutiny and attention around emerging
technologies, environmental issues, white-collar crime and data
privacy are leading to increased needs for information and data
governance-related guidance, as well as expert support for
high-pressure digital forensic and e-discovery matters. The
addition of Jens and Sebastian to our team in Germany is a
continuation of our commitment to grow our global client offerings
across a range of specialisations.”

data challenges through close collaboration between legal and IT
teams and advises on corporate governance and compliance matters
across industry sectors, including automotive, banking, healthcare,

focus on white-collar crime, internal investigations and

of Dϋsseldorf School of Law.
