About Rikka Rikka Law Group is a woman and minority-owned technology law firm founded by Charlyn Ho, a former U.S. Navy Supply Corps officer, Cravath associate, Perkins Coie partner, and Forbes.com contributor quoted in outlets including Legaltech News and Cointelegraph. We are also a certified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business, which matters here: this role supports proceedings for the Wyoming National Guard, and we understand the mission behind that work firsthand. Rikka has built its practice representing technology companies on AI, privacy, and compliance, and we have recently begun extending that work into federal contracting. As our federal contracting work grows, there may be opportunities for additional assignments. You would be working directly with our team, not filing a transcript into a file.
