Litigation is one of the greatest threats arising from the expansion of data collection and digital asset management. Our national team handles hundreds of privacy and data-related litigations every year across a broad range of industries. The unmatched combination of our incident response, e-discovery advocacy and data security breach litigation experience enables us to do an effective assessment at the outset to simulate likely outcomes of alternate strategies and develop a case-specific strategy.

We have obtained rulings dismissing claims with prejudice, granting judgment on the pleadings, upholding the application of attorney client privilege and work product related to the engagement of forensic investigation firms, and defeated motions for class certification. Our team represents more covered entities in incident, regulatory, and litigation responses than any other of our peer firms, and we possess unparalleled experience in incident response, e-discovery advocacy and data security breaches. Because of our representation, we know where the law is, where it is heading, and can capitalize on our robust experience in this space to provide the most effective, and efficient, legal service.

We are leaders in the defense of Multidistrict Litigation (MDL) across a variety of practice areas, having led the defense of the most significant MDLs including In re AT&T, In re Marriott, In re MOVEit, and In re Fortra. Our ability to advise on the entire spectrum of data privacy, digital risk, and cybersecurity-related issues clearly establishes us as a go-to practice in the industry.
