Our specialist cyber team can coordinate and manage data breaches in the UK, all 28 European countries and worldwide. We are cyber specialists, with market-leading expertise and a dedicated cyber team with a wealth of experience focused on the cyber insurance market.
A breach may cross borders and involve several jurisdictions. It is essential that the response is seamlessly coordinated, with specialist lawyers at the centre for the purposes of legal privilege.
We offer a global solution. In the event of a significant breach affecting more than one jurisdiction, we manage the response from the UK by working with colleagues and partner firms in other European and international offices together with experts such as forensic investigators and PR/crisis management specialists.
Our response service is designed to proactively manage incidents to minimise legal exposure and maximise the effectiveness of the response. We have a wealth of experience managing breaches, built up over the last 15+ years. Members of our cyber team have worked in-house for insurers and developed cyber products for insurer clients, so we can also fulfil advisory, monitoring and coverage counsel roles. Named Law Firm of the Year 2018 and TMT team of the Year 2019, our cyber team operates within Pinsent Masons’ Tier 1 rated TMT practice, allowing us to bring considerable technological knowledge and expertise to complement our breach expertise. In addition, we have extensive experience dealing with claims flowing from data breaches, and are currently representing a number of high profile clients in group action litigation.
