LGN Partner Elected to Sedona Conference Steering Committee
LGN Partner Kate Baxter-Kauf was recently elected to a three-year term on The Sedona Conference Working Group 11: Data Security and Privacy Liability Steering Committee. The mission of Working Group 11 is to identify and comment on trends in data security and privacy law, in an effort to help organizations prepare for and respond to data breaches, and to assist attorneys and judicial officers in resolving questions of legal liability and damages. The Working Group will develop best practices drawn from civil litigation arising from data security and privacy violations, legislative governance of data security and privacy, and regulatory enforcement of data security and privacy laws, in order to help organizations take action before and after a data breach to minimize their legal exposure, to inform affected parties of their rights and responsibilities, and to assist in the coordination of regulatory, law enforcement, and judicial responses to data breach and related incidents.
Kate largely focuses her practice on data breach, cybersecurity & privacy, and antitrust litigation, representing consumers, financial institutions, and small businesses in class action litigation.
