We represent individuals and businesses in civil cases where technology is at the center, including people injured when software fails. Our combination of technical expertise and courtroom skill allows us to understand the evidence as well as the experts who testify about it, and to present it clearly to a judge or jury.
When software fails, people can be seriously hurt or killed. Driver-assistance and self-driving systems, medical devices, aviation and industrial control systems, and AI-driven products all depend on code that can be defective. We represent injured people and families in claims against the companies responsible. These cases turn on source code, system logs, and event data recorders, evidence we know how to obtain, analyze, and explain to a jury.
We bring and defend civil claims under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act and state computer crime laws, from misuse of company systems to sophisticated data intrusions.
When an employee leaves with confidential data, the evidence is usually on laptops, phones, external drives, and cloud accounts. We determine what was taken, when, and by whom, and litigate to protect it, or defend employees who are wrongly accused, including on appeal.
We advise and litigate for individuals and businesses affected by data breaches and privacy violations, including disputes over what was exposed, how it happened, and who is responsible.
