Boutique Legal Expertise for Life Science Visionaries
Sandra Liede

I am an experienced lawyer specialized in health technology and life science regulation. I work where healthcare, technology, and innovation intersect, helping clients navigate complex regulatory issues strategically and proactively.
I combine deep sector understanding with a practical approach, which enables me to find quick and accurate solutions even in uncertain regulatory situations.
My expertise focuses on complex issues where legal interpretation, data analytics, artificial intelligence and healthcare operational practices intersect. I develop practical and legally sound solutions for clients in situations where regulatory uncertainty is the norm.
My diverse experience in both the regulatory and corporate worlds provides a unique perspective on the industry as a whole. I manage the entire value chain – from research and development to market entry and aftermarket surveillance – and I know how to leverage regulation as a strategic competitive advantage.
I offer legal services through Laissa Oy .
