Congratulations to our 28 colleagues, including Clayton Northouse, for their election to the Sidley Austin partnership. Clay represents companies that have suffered cybersecurity attacks and consumer privacy incidents and has developed multidimensional defenses to litigation, congressional inquiries, and regulatory investigations. He has experience in the use of cybersecurity forensics and the investigation of sophisticated international incidents. In addition to counseling companies regarding their compliance with the full range of data protection laws, Clay also helps companies assess the legal implications of deploying novel communication and digital technologies. Clay has been a driving force in guiding Sidley’s privacy and cybersecurity diligence for significant M&A and private equity transactions.
