Privacy Regulatory Investigations & Enforcement
Companies face rigorous scrutiny of their privacy, data security, and artificial intelligence (AI) practices from federal, state, and foreign regulators with expanding mandates and willingness to aggressively use their investigative and remedial powers.
Perkins Coie has handled some of the highest profile privacy, data security, and consumer protection investigations and enforcement actions initiated by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), state attorneys general, local regulators, and foreign data protection authorities. Businesses from large multinationals to startups rely on Perkins Coie for our knowledge and skill, our tenacity, and our deep bench, including lawyers with experience as former FTC officials, in state attorneys general offices, and with other federal and state regulatory bodies.
Our lawyers represent clients in all stages of governmental investigations. We are well-versed in the dynamics of multistate attorneys general investigations and in serving as global coordinating counsel in investigations spanning U.S. and foreign regulators. Our lawyers also defend clients in litigation when government authorities file enforcement actions in court or in administrative tribunals.
When investigations end with compliance orders, we help companies create and manage compliance programs, obtain any required third-party assessments, and defend inquiries into compliance with such orders. We also advocate for clients in formal and informal congressional investigations and on public policy issues, such as agency rulemakings and in connection with legislative activity.
