Regulatory defense

Overview

In recent years, data privacy and consumer protection have stayed at the forefront of regulatory concerns. Unfortunately, a data breach or privacy incident can often trigger an investigation by the government or regulatory agencies. Fines and penalties can grow very quickly and it’s important to have counsel skilled in navigating these investigations.

To minimize these risks, McDonald Hopkins' data privacy and cybersecurity attorneys prepare our clients for, and can counsel them through, investigations by state and federal agencies, listed below. We have not only built strong relationships with these agencies over the years, our team is comprised of multiple former privacy regulators and brings a unique perspective to work through these investigations.

• State Attorneys General
• Office for Civil Rights
• Federal Trade Commission
• U.S. Department of Education
• U.S. Department of Defense
• New York State Department of Financial Services
• National Association of Insurance Commissioners
• National Credit Union Administration
• Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
