New Law Firm in Charleston is Making Waves in AI and Data Privacy

Charleston, SC – Exciting things are happening in the world of corporate law right here in Charleston! A brand-new law firm, Britt Law, has opened its doors, and it’s looking to carve out a niche in the fast-emerging fields of artificial intelligence (AI) and data privacy. Whether you run a small startup or your company is part of the Fortune 500, Britt Law is stepping up to help navigate the complexities of today’s tech-heavy landscape.

A Focus on a Booming Industry

Why the focus on AI and data privacy? Well, simply put, we live in an era where data is everything, and laws governing how that data can be used are becoming more stringent by the day. In fact, there’s been a flurry of regulations recently, including the EU AI Act and a series of state-specific data privacy laws. As businesses juggle increasing responsibilities, the expertise offered by firms like Britt Law becomes invaluable.

Steve Britt, the firm’s founder, expressed his commitment to helping businesses with this urgent challenge. “In today’s rapidly advancing data management landscape, the need for robust data privacy and AI compliance expertise has never been more critical,” he said. This sentiment reflects the rapid pace of change in technology and the law, and it indicates that Britt Law is perfectly positioned to guide clients through these tumultuous waters.

The Man Behind the Firm

What sets Steve apart? For starters, he is the only attorney in Charleston with certifications from the International Association of Privacy Professionals. He holds accolades that include the Artificial Intelligence Governance Professional (AIGP), and is familiar with global data privacy laws, including the Certified Information Privacy Professional/Europe (CIPP/E) and Certified Information Privacy Manager (CIPM). With over 25 years of deep experience in technology law, Steve has previously served as counsel at Parker Poe Adams & Bernstein LLP in Charlotte and held positions at various prestigious firms in Northern Virginia.

Navigating Complexity

As AI technology continues to evolve, so do the myriad laws and regulations surrounding its use. Notably, a report from Forbes highlights that the global AI market is anticipated to reach a staggering $1.3 billion by 2030. That’s a lot of zeros and even more legislation! As more than 70% of businesses have incorporated AI into at least one facet of their operations, the complexities of compliance can feel overwhelming.

“AI laws and regulations are far more complex than anyone truly understands. Companies need expert help to navigate these new requirements and to plot their own path to compliance,” Britt added.
