Hogan Lovells US LLP

Hogan Lovells US LLP‘s privacy and cybersecurity team works with clients ’to holistically and globally address issues’, from comprehensive advice on federal and state privacy developments to government regulatory investigations and high-stakes privacy litigation. Practice head Scott Loughlin regularly handles data-heavy M&A and technology acquisitions, including third-party risk management. The longstanding sector expertise of Marcy Wilder is cited by clients as demonstrative of the firm’s ‘in-depth privacy knowledge’: Wilder’s experience in government healthcare policy involved developing HIPAA regulations, and current work includes supporting clients through high-profile data breaches and privacy enforcement investigations. Multi-national technology and software companies seek out Bret Cohen for technical knowledge in cloud computing, AI, machine learning and social media, and also leads the firm’s education privacy practice. Paul Otto is noted for risk management, regulatory compliance and incident response matters, particularly in the life sciences and health sectors. Heading up the technology and telecoms industry sector group, Mark Brennan assists clients in navigating internet policy decisions, and the growing influence of AI. In New York, Peter Marta leverages previous in-house and intelligence experience to manage cybersecurity threats. Harriet Pearson  departed the team in August 2023. All team members are based in Washington DC unless otherwise stated.
