About

‘I enjoy that my role focuses on defending and protecting the user’s voice – a core principle for Twitter,’ says Amy Keating, who heads all litigation for the social media brand. ‘Since joining the department, I’ve prioritized scaling our ability to tackle litigation challenges both internationally and in the United States’. Keating was one of a number of lawyers who joined Twitter in 2012 from Google, where Keating handled the high-profile book search copyright dispute. ‘Her razor-sharp strategic judgment and unrelenting attention to detail lead to great litigation results,’ one private practice source says. ‘We work to build relationships with law firms that understand the unique aspects of the Twitter platform,’ Keating says on the subject of outside counsel. ‘Especially firms that can give us insights into local perspectives’.
