Invaluable counsel for a complex data breach response

Our health tech company faced a significant data security incident involving protected health information. The potential regulatory and reputational fallout was daunting. Daniel Gottlieb and his team at McDermott Will & Schulte were immediately engaged, and his 26 years of experience, particularly at the intersection of healthcare and privacy law, proved indispensable. He provided a clear, strategic roadmap for our response, ensuring compliance with HIPAA and state laws while effectively managing communications with regulators. His deep understanding of the healthcare ecosystem—from providers to data aggregators—allowed him to anticipate challenges we hadn't even considered. The recognition he's received in Privacy and Data Security Law is clearly well-earned. Thanks to Daniel's steady guidance, we navigated the crisis successfully, minimized penalties, and have implemented stronger data governance. He is the first call we will make for any future legal matters in his practice areas.
