Washington, DC – April 22, 2024 – For the second year in a row, four Cooley partners have been recognized in Cybersecurity Docket’s prestigious Incident Response 50 – its annual list of the best data breach response lawyers globally.
The publication selected the firm’s global cyber/data/privacy practice co-chairs, Travis LeBlanc and Patrick Van Eecke, as well as David Navetta and Guadalupe Sampedro. In choosing two Cooley partners in the United States and two in Europe, the IR 50 highlighted the strength of the firm’s market-leading Trans-Atlantic c/d/p lawyers. This achievement marked Cooley’s second consecutive receipt of more IR 50 nods than any other firm, as well as LeBlanc’s seventh consecutive listing, Navetta’s fourth, and the second straight listings for Van Eecke and Sampedro.
Based on input from numerous senior lawyers and other professionals in the field, as well as considerable research, Cybersecurity Docket’s IR 50 seeks to identify the lawyers who can manage a large data breach response with professionalism and urgency.
