Sean Buckley counsels innovators in two worlds—digital media and healthcare. They're not as different as you might think. Both industries require Sean to master the legal framework and distill the business complexities. With that knowledge, he offers inspired solutions and actionable advice to improve legal processes and contract management and quickly executes deals that hold up over time.
The marketing, media, and advertising space is a brave new world for influencing consumer behavior online. In this arena, Sean helps ad agencies, media platforms, and advertisers, including Fortune 500 brands, structure deals that influence the marketplace.
Immersed in all aspects of the marketing and digital media ecosystem, he spends much of his time advising clients on minimizing legal risks associated with programmatic advertising, digital marketing, e-retail, online communities, social influencers, native advertising, email, and out-of-home advertising. Sean provides legal guidance on some of the most interesting and novel issues arising in the digital media industry.
“Successful deals require speed, especially in the digital space. It's not often, but if the opportunity demands it, we can close a transaction in the span of only a few weeks or days.”
