About me

Law is not an end in itself — ultimately it is about our society.

A civil & commercial lawyer in Zurich, working at the intersection of law, technology and societal matters.

My name is Dirk Spacek. Born in Zurich, I grew up for periods of my life in England, Paris and New York/Boston. Professionally, I am a lawyer. I advise companies primarily on private commercial, contract and corporate matters, but with a particular focus on technology, intellectual property, data/cybersecurity. I also litigate private contract disputes before courts (work, service, rental contracts and disputes among technology and infrastructure providers).

Since my studies, doctorate and further education in Zurich and New York, I have worked for many years in these fields of law. I follow technological and social developments with great personal interest, beyond the purely legal perspective.

This is my personal website. It contains publications and similar contributions on these subject areas — legal, economic, societal — and is meant to encourage exchange on these topics.
