‘A broad team with in-depth knowledge of cyber law’, the data strategy and security practice at Debevoise & Plimpton LLP handles technically complex cyber investigations and boasts a growing AI team: an area of focus for practice group co-head Avi Gesser, bolstered by the April 2023 addition of counsel Matt Kelly from Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP. Gesser, based in New York, advises clients on governance, risk and liability issues related to both AI and cybersecurity. In Washington DC, co-head Luke Dembosky leverages significant national security experience to support companies in managing cyber risks, responding to incidents, and the investigations which arise from them. Litigation partner Erez Liebermann works out of New York, and combines both in-house and government experience to handle regulatory counselling and high-impact incident response matters. Also in New York, Jim Pastore and Johanna Skrzypczyk are recommended for breach response and privacy-oriented work respectively. Lisa Zornberg departed in July 2023.
