Jones Day
Client SatisfactionThe cybersecurity, privacy and data protection team at Jones Day ‘has an extremely broad set of experiences upon which it can draw to advise its clients’; it handles a range of complex, large scale class action disputes along with government regulatory enforcement, and compliance advice in reference to developing technologies, notably including generative AI systems. Lisa Ropple, based in Boston, ’is an outstanding partner in this practice area’: her longstanding expertise in handling data breach matters is paired with experience of both regulatory investigations and litigation in the area. Cybersecurity incidents both in the US and internationally are handled by the team, which is ‘global in nature’, Kerianne Tobitsch, in New York, is a key name for this area. Also in New York, Mauricio Paez is recommended for cybersecurity matters including risk management and the development of compliance programs. For litigation, California-based John Vogt is a go-to: his experience spans class actions involving theft of consumer data, heath care records, and financial information, while Atlanta-based Mary Alexander Myers is noted for her work on complex technology-driven transactions.
