We can partner with you to identify your risks, protect your business and pinpoint opportunities in this fast-moving environment. We can help safeguard and grow your organization through comprehensive investigations, providing dynamic representation before multiple government agencies, or by defending your company in court.

Our strategic approach has helped our clients in multiple disputes including cyber incidents, data class actions, data protection, technology-based solutions and services, and products.

Representative experience

A global data and technology company in High Court group litigation comprising consumer claims for damages for losses arising from a cyberattack on its system. This representation followed our team’s successful strike-out of a representation action on behalf of a class of 15 million consumers seeking damages in the hundreds of millions of pounds.
A major social media company in defense of liability claims related to mental health issues, arising from alleged negligence in the design of its content moderation mechanisms and recommendation algorithm. This is a first-of-its-kind and complex technology dispute, presenting highly challenging questions, particularly regarding the application of the groundbreaking Digital Services Act.
Secured a milestone inadmissibility judgment in the first data representative class action launched in France. This representative class action had been initiated by a major French consumer association against our client after the latter had been sanctioned by Commission nationale de l'informatique et des libertés (CNIL) for alleged breaches of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This is the first data class action launched in France since the creation of this new procedure.
