Preparing Companies for Impending Data Privacy, Cybersecurity Changes
When I entered the data privacy and cybersecurity law space over a decade ago, it was certainly difficult to predict the myriad ways data would be collected, used and stored today. In that time, social media has exploded, devices are even more portable, appliances have gotten "smart" and technology users have gotten younger.
As so often happens, technology was and continues to be light-years ahead of the law, and businesses are increasingly facing new regulations that attempt to shut Pandora's box. Data privacy is one of the most rapidly changing areas of law as regulators and lawmakers are often playing catch-up to groundbreaking technologies that have transformed society in irreversible ways. This process has brought significant implications for businesses and corporate legal departments of all shapes and sizes, which must now retroactively incorporate various data privacy and cybersecurity considerations into their existing structures.
Staying on top of the ever-evolving legal landscape of data privacy and cybersecurity is a full-time job — our team's job, in fact. The complex intermix of state, federal and international laws; the varying and phased effective dates of those laws; and the litany of false starts for various bills in states and the United States Congress make staying on top of the latest requirements particularly challenging for businesses.

COVID-19 and Lease Negotiations: Early Termination Provisions
During the COVID-19 pandemic, some tenants were able to negotiate termination agreements with their landlords. But even though a landlord may agree to terminate a lease to regain control of a defaulting tenant's space without costly and lengthy litigation, typically a defaulting tenant that otherwise has no contractual right to terminate its lease will be in a much weaker bargaining position with respect to the conditions for termination.
