Whether it’s protecting family wealth across generations or resolving complex trust disputes, I look forward to leveraging FisherBroyles’ dynamic platform to provide clients with practical, forward-thinking counsel.”

Maroc joins FisherBroyles in Palo Alto, California, with more than 30 years of legal experience, including nearly 24 years spent in-house. Specializing in privacy, data security and technology law, he is a recognized authority on navigating the legal complexities of rapidly evolving technology sectors. His knowledge spans fields such as artificial intelligence, data privacy, international licensing and commercial transactions. Maroc holds certifications in both U.S. and European data privacy law (CIPP/US, CIPP/E) and is also a certified AI Governance Professional.

“FisherBroyles offers a dynamic platform for providing legal solutions that seamlessly integrates technology, law and business strategy,” said Maroc. “I’m pleased to join such an innovative firm, where I can continue to work with clients in managing complex data privacy and technology challenges, positioning them for future growth while ensuring compliance with an ever-changing regulatory landscape.”

Jess Bahs, the practice group leader for both new partners, welcomed the additions: “We are incredibly honored to have Adam and Phillip join our team. Adam’s experience in estate planning and litigation, combined with his focus on long-term client relationships, will be a tremendous asset to our growing private client services group. Similarly, Phillip’s knowledge in technology and privacy law, especially in the rapidly developing areas of AI and data security, strengthens our ability to serve clients in these critical areas of business.”
