CYBERSECURITY

Ann Marie Mortimer, co-head of Hunton Andrew Kurth’s commercial litigation practice and founder and managing partner of the firm’s Los Angeles office, is at the forefront of novel cybersecurity litigation threatening the fundamental business of global brands, counseling Fortune 50 companies – among them giants in their industries – on the novel challenges and regulation endemic to our increasingly virtual world, including Fortune 1 big box retailer Walmart and retail giant L Brands (Victoria’s Secret) in some of the first alleged CCPA actions in the state of California.

Growing her relationship with Facebook (now Meta Platforms, Inc.) while most firms represent the social media giant as a defendant, Mortimer is the lead attorney solely representing the social media giant as a plaintiff, the majority of which are statutory actions, in coordinated, multi-jurisdictional litigation to enforce its terms and protect its users. Last year, she represented the social media giant in seven statutory actions.
