Proskauer’s Vice-Chair of the Litigation Department and Minding Your Business blog editor, Margaret Dale was recently featured on Thomson Reuters’ Practical Law, where she explores ways that clients can protect privilege after a data breach. The first, “Protecting Privilege Basics,” identifies steps that can be taken by an organization to maximize the ability to successfully assert privilege to protect documents and communications after a data breach. The second, “Data Breaches: Counsel’s Role in Privilege Protection,” explores how counsel can help guide an organization that suffers a breach to protect its privileged material.
