Tim Hickman LLB, LPC

Tim advises on all aspects of UK and EU privacy and data protection law, from general compliance issues (such as implementing privacy policies and consent forms) to more specialized issues (such as managing data breaches, structuring cross-border data transfers, and complying with the 'right to be forgotten'). Tim has a detailed knowledge of the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and co-authored White & Case's Handbook on that legislation (whitecase.com/eu-gdpr-handbook).

Clients appreciate Tim's ability to find pragmatic and commercial solutions to complex (and frequently multi-jurisdictional) data protection compliance questions. Tim has significant experience of working with a wide range of clients in the EU, Asia and the US. In 2018 he gave a seminar at Harvard Law School on the impact of the GDPR on US businesses. He has also spent time on secondment at Google, advising on cutting-edge privacy and data protection issues.
