About
Executive-level privacy, data protection, and AI governance leadership to companies navigating complex regulatory, technical, and operational risk. Led by Brett Cook, a former Global Privacy Officer, Fortune 100 privacy counsel, and U.S. Navy JAG, the practice focuses on helping high-growth and regulated organizations operationalize privacy and data ethics without slowing innovation. The practice advises boards, executives, and product teams on GDPR, U.S. state privacy laws (including CCPA/CPRA), global data transfer frameworks, biometric and AI risk, and emerging AI governance obligations. Services are delivered through fractional Chief Privacy Officer engagements, interim DPO support, and targeted advisory projects—bridging legal requirements with real-world product, engineering, and security constraints. Known for translating complex regulatory expectations into practical, scalable programs, including privacy-by-design frameworks, DPIAs, vendor risk management, incident response readiness, and executive-level reporting. The practice emphasizes risk-informed decision-making rather than legal formalism, enabling leadership teams to understand tradeoffs, regulatory exposure, and defensible compliance positions. Clients include technology, fintech, digital health, SaaS, emergency services, DoD, and data-driven companies seeking experienced guidance at the intersection of privacy, AI, cybersecurity, and business strategy—without the cost or rigidity of a traditional law firm model.
