guibert.law bridges the gap between legal strategy and technical execution — advising engineering-intensive businesses on IP, cybersecurity, privacy, aviation law, and transnational deals in language engineers actually understand.
01
Intellectual Property
Full-spectrum IP strategy, prosecution, licensing, and enforcement for technology-driven companies — from patent portfolio management to trade secret protection.
02
Privacy & Cybersecurity
Cross-border privacy compliance, risk management, and incident response — with hands-on expertise in embedded systems security and automotive cybersecurity standards.
03
Embedded Systems & Safety
Legal and technical guidance at the intersection of functional safety standards, regulatory compliance, and product liability — for automotive, industrial, and other safety-critical domains.
04
Aviation Law
Aircraft transactions, drone law, FAA regulatory compliance, and homologation services — covering manned and unmanned aviation systems.
05
Securities & Transnational
SEC filings, private placements, Blue Sky compliance, technology transfers, cross-border agreements, and foreign subsidiary formation.
06
Start-up Advisory
Entity formation, outside general counsel, business consulting, and technology evaluations — guiding founders from idea to market-ready company.
Most legal counsel advises your legal team, leaving engineers and product managers to interpret and implement alone. guibert.law works directly with your technical leaders — in the language they use, at the depth they expect.
With 30 years of engineering leadership across embedded systems, automotive electronics, and software-defined products, combined with formal legal training and professional certifications in functional safety and cybersecurity, this practice understands the full stack.
Engineering-fluent counsel
ISO 26262 / ISO 21434 certified. Your HARA, TARA, and FMEA are not a foreign language here.
Outsourced general counsel
Full-spectrum legal coverage without the overhead of an in-house team.
Start-up to scale
From entity formation and IP strategy to SEC filings and international expansion.
The Accidental Revolution: How a Telephone Monopoly’s Legal Cage Built the Computing World — and Why Autonomous Driving Needs Its Own Consent Decree Moment

Beyond ISO Numerology: The Layered Architecture of Trust in Modern Electronics
IATF 16949, ISO 26262, SOTIF, ISO/SAE 21434, ISO 42001, ISO/PAS 8800, UL 4600, ISO 24089 — they do not compete, they stack. Understanding the intersections matters more than any single standard number.
When You Need Outside General Counsel — And When You Just Need a Lawyer
