Meet Daria Rutecka
A partner in our technology & digitalisation practice
"GDPR, AI, IP – my favourite acronyms."
Daria joined Schoenherr as an associate in 2015. After more than eight years with Schoenherr, she became a partner in our Warsaw office, advising clients on corporate, commercial, data protection, IP and new technologies matters.
Hi, I'm Daria.
As a part of our technology & digitalisation team, I get to advise clients on transactions, IP questions, data protection and anything technology related. This means that some of my days are filled with a variety of projects – from big mergers and acquisitions to complicated software agreements. Depending on what is on my desk, one day might be packed with meetings and calls, while another one is spent writing articles on AI and discussing the latest tech trends with our team.
It allows me to dive into topics and issues that I am interested in the most – such as new technologies, AI, cybersecurity and data protection (to name a few) – and combine them with professional experience, to see how they come together in practice.
Discovering my niche in technology transactions was definitely a milestone, and the GDPR entering into force was a professional highlight, since it brought along numerous exciting legal challenges that we had the opportunity to advise on.
Meeting and working with remarkable lawyers from other countries is always a great experience and a learning opportunity. To work in a law firm that unites lawyers who are not only excellent professionals but, above all, outstanding personalities, feels very fulfilling and powerful.
