In today’s digital world, information moves faster than ever. Customer data, employee files, financial records, and other sensitive information are often shared across borders in seconds. While this creates huge opportunities for businesses, it also brings serious risks and compliance challenges.
At The Data Privacy Lawyer, we provide practical and tailored Data Privacy Advisory services to help businesses stay compliant, protect sensitive data, and reduce risks. We guide you through complex privacy laws and regulatory obligations—whether in daily operations, financial transactions, or disputes.
Many businesses face strict consumer protection rules and aggressive government enforcement. That’s why many turn to a skilled privacy lawyer who understands government regulations, consumer protection laws, and digital marketing practices.
At The Data Privacy Lawyer, we help businesses stay compliant, avoid penalties, and defend against investigations. With deep experience in FTC Act Section 5 compliance, we provide practical and effective guidance that protects your brand and marketing campaigns.
Our goal is to reduce risks before they become problems. Whether through compliance reviews, case closure strategies, settlement negotiations, or litigation defense, The Data Privacy Lawyer provides the legal protection and peace of mind your business needs.
We focus on helping businesses protect health information and stay compliant with Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and state privacy laws. With experience in healthcare, compliance, and technology, we understand the real-world challenges you face in managing data privacy and security.
Our work often includes guiding clients on HIPAA requirements, ensuring state law compliance, and offering strategies to avoid costly mistakes.
We support organizations in navigating HIPAA compliance by providing practical guidance and tailored strategies. Our experience enables us to offer clear, actionable advice to healthcare providers, life sciences companies, and businesses of all sizes.
We help financial institutions protect the sensitive information they handle every day. Financial data is heavily regulated, and we make sure you stay compliant with the key laws that apply to your business, including the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA), the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) and its FACT Act amendments, the Right to Financial Privacy Act, as well as state laws.
We also guide clients through data security requirements, data breach laws, and other privacy rules that impact financial services. Our experience covers both traditional financial institutions and companies working with emerging technologies like blockchain, digital assets, and fintech platforms.
At The Data Privacy Lawyer, we help businesses build and maintain strong privacy programs that comply with U.S. privacy laws, state regulations, and the like. Our goal is to make compliance clear and practical, so you can stay focused on growing your business.
We guide clients through the challenges of collecting, storing, and using personal data (PII) while staying compliant with laws such as the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), Driver’s Privacy Protection Act (DPPA), Video Privacy Protection Act (VPPA), and the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA). By using our knowledge of both federal and state privacy laws, we help companies make smart compliance decisions that align with their business goals.
A DPA is one of the most important parts of a strong privacy program. It clearly defines how personal data is collected, shared, stored, and protected between your business and your vendors. Without it, companies face risks like data breaches, regulatory fines, and damage to their reputation.
We guide you through every step of the process—from identifying what data is being processed and by whom, to ensuring your agreements meet all legal requirements.
We help organizations across the United States conduct Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs) to keep data handling safe, secure, and compliant with U.S. privacy laws.
A DPIA is a structured review of how personal data is collected, used, stored, and shared. Through this process, we identify potential privacy and security risks, evaluate existing safeguards, and clarify accountability within your organization for protecting sensitive information.
We help U.S. businesses manage and document the way they handle personal data, guiding you in keeping information safe while supporting your business goals.
Working with your team in legal, compliance, IT, and operations, we create clear and practical processes for collecting, using, storing, sharing, and disposing of personal information. This includes creating detailed Records of Processing Activities (RoPAs) that outline how data flows through your organization, ensuring transparency, accountability, and easier compliance with both federal and state privacy regulations.
We provide Fractional Privacy Counsel services to help U.S. businesses strengthen and manage their privacy programs. Our services are ideal for companies in privacy-sensitive industries, organizations entering new markets, or businesses using emerging technologies like Artificial Intelligence, who need clear guidance on how privacy impacts their operations.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming how businesses innovate, operate, and grow; but it also brings new privacy risks that demand careful oversight. AI systems rely on large volumes of personal and sensitive data, making transparency, fairness, and accountability essential. We help organizations build practical AI programs that protect individuals’ rights, ensure responsible data use, and align with evolving U.S. privacy. From ethical data governance to clear internal policies, our approach helps companies unlock the potential of AI while maintaining trust and compliance.
