Our practice helps U.S. companies understand their obligations under European AI regulation, build the frameworks to meet them, and avoid costly surprises — without law firm rates.
The EU AI Act is the world’s first comprehensive law regulating artificial intelligence. It’s already in force. If your company uses AI — in hiring, customer service, product recommendations, fraud detection, or operations — and you have European customers, employees, or partners, you have legal obligations you may not know about.
The EU AI Act classifies AI systems into four risk levels. Each has different obligations. Most companies haven’t mapped their systems.
High-risk AI obligations — documentation, conformity assessments, human oversight — are mandatory from August 2, 2026. That’s not a warning. It’s a deadline.
Most U.S. in-house counsel and law firms don’t have deep EU AI Act expertise. And the ones that do charge $500–$800/hour. There’s a better way to get started.
Our clients are technology companies, SaaS businesses, growth-stage startups, and the investors and boards that back them. What they share: EU customers, EU employees, or EU operations — and a need for someone who understands both the regulatory landscape and the American business context.
| You’re in the rightplace if… | – Your company uses AI in any customer-facing or operational capacity – You have European customers, users, or employees – You’ve heard about the EU AI Act but haven’t taken action yet – Your board or investors are asking questions you can’t fully answer – You want clarity before spending $50,000 on a law firm – You need someone who speaks both the regulatory and the business language — in English and Spanish |
Our work spans AI compliance, intellectual property, and cross-border digital policy across three continents. We advise institutions, companies, and investors navigating the world’s most significant technology regulations — combining deep regulatory expertise with the practical understanding of what businesses can actually implement.
I founded this practice after years advising governments, academic institutions, and companies across Latin America, Europe, and the United States. I’ve presented at WIPO, spoken at international conferences on AI and intellectual property, and written on AI regulation for diverse publications including Kluwer Law, Oxford, PIJIP, IVIR. I work in English and Spanish, and I understand what European regulation actually requires — not just in theory, but in practice, for real businesses.
Every client engagement is led personally by me, supported by a network of specialists — including EU-qualified lawyers in key jurisdictions — when specific local expertise is required.
