Media/Privacy

N&T’s extensive experience also includes investigating and litigating high profile privacy and data security cases. For example, N&T was counsel in the Sony data breach and hack perpetrated by North Korean operatives that allegedly exposed Sony employees’ social security numbers, private messages, and other sensitive private information. N&T has participated in similar investigations and claims against, e.g., financial institutions, retailers, and other businesses.

N&T’s experience in the privacy and data security arena also extends to telephone consumer privacy. Our team, for example, has dedicated years litigating cases involving the misuse of customer contact data, illegal call spamming, and similar claims. Some of N&T’s cases in this arena include:
