Part I: AI and Legal Ethics
Ranked as Band 1 for Privacy and Data Security by Chambers Global since 2013, we have vast experience in privacy and data breach litigation. We combine our litigation and investigations skill with our cybersecurity and privacy practices to provide an integrated approach to data disputes. We advise clients across multiple industries, from tech sector titans to major financial services corporations. And we lead the way: in the U.S., our Privacy and Cybersecurity Litigation team was the first to complete comprehensive expert discovery and class certification briefing in major cyber-attack data breach litigation, and in the UK we obtained the withdrawal of the first data breach representative action to come before the English court.
