In recent years, data-driven technologies have transformed the world around us, we have computers that can translate for us, facial recognition systems to unlock our phones and algorithms to identify certain cancers. However, we have also seen what happens when data sets that are used to train the algorithms are not representative of all of us. This is data bias, and it has real world consequences for many of us.
Building a resilient tech strategy is crucial to keep on top of the game. Most businesses, if they are not using technology already are probably looking into ways of using it to stay ahead of the pack. However, if your core businesses has nothing to do with tech, then you are going to need help. This is where a tech joint venture can help, but it comes with its risks. In this podcast our lawyers look into what you should watch out for when you enter one with another firm.
Being an innovative business comes with its challenges and legal risks. In recent years, there has been a major increase in cyber attacks, and this is a real risk for every business. Aside from the cyber attack itself, businesses are increasingly facing an onslaught of litigation in the aftermath of a breach, such as consumers seeking compensation. In this podcast, our team looks at: what happens when a cyber attack occurs, and the legal aspects you should be thinking of.
Right now, every industry is under pressure to innovate, compete or even survive in the current environment, and many companies are using technology to solve some of their biggest challenges. There are a lot of legal risks and issues that businesses may face, from a simple malfunction to a complex hack that could lead to big consequences. In this episode we’ll look at what happens when things don’t go to plan.

The pandemic has really transformed the healthcare sector. The rise in telemedicine has rapidly changed patient care - as providers look to deliver services in a safe and effective way. And it's not going away. The use of telemedicine continues to grow. While an impressive step-change, the use of telemedicine has certainly caught the attention of the Department of Justice as well as the qui tam relators' bar. We're seeing greater enforcement actions and an increase in False Claims Act cases. Let's dig into this a bit and find out what it means for companies in this space.
Participants: Michele Sartori and Allison Caplis Moderator: Gejaa Gobena
Since the pandemic, cyber related crime is on the rise. And with that comes an increase in cyber fraud. Many of our clients who conduct business with the U.S. government are also keenly aware of the risks associated with the False Claims Act, which is the civil statute that permits treble damages for the government in a number of circumstances, including when a false or misleading claim for payment is made to the government. Now there is a clear intersection between these two important issues.
Participants: Michael Theis and Stacy Hadeka Moderator: David Sharfstein

One of the most fascinating elements of the rewilding approaches used in Selkie is the combination of state-of-the-art science and high-tech measurement instruments on the one hand, and on the other, traditional wisdom, ways of observing and interacting with nature. By combining the best of the past with the best of the future, nature gets the ideal support to grow back into a stable ecosystem able to take care of itself.

In the village of Selkie in Eastern Finland, industrial peat extraction had greatly degraded the landscape, poisoning lakes and rivers and endangering the aquatic life there. But thanks to the efforts of the Snowchange Cooperative with financial support from Hogan Lovells, a stunning nature recovery has taken place in only a few years. After years of decline, birds are coming back to nest and visit this key migratory site, biodiversity has been restored and the soil is shifting slowly from the release of heavy carbon dioxide emissions to effective carbon absorption. A blessing for the locals who can continue their traditional ways of life with nature and a model for all of Europe.

The concept of rewilding has a proven track record of success and is now rapidly growing in Europe. Rewilding Europe is the organisation which effectively spreads this idea across the continent. At the core of their work is a new attitude of trusting nature to take care of itself rather than controlling and confining it. Results from the scientific programmes accompanying their work show that this is not only an extremely effective way of increasing biodiversity and combatting climate change, but it is also the most cost effective one. It is the future of nature conservation – by using natural solutions to tackle global challenges.

On April 1, 1993, 21 Secret Service agents were responsible for protecting the president during his visit to the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. On their breakfast break, they visited a Denny's restaurant. And while every single officer was willing to put their lives on the line for their country and their commander-in-chief, only the white officers were served that day. In Episode 10: Discrimination, Pro Bono Senior Counsel Jonathan Abram speaks with Walter Smith, Executive Director of DC Appleseed Center for Law & Justice, about the disturbing pattern of racial bias at this major American restaurant chain. Walter also describes our work in defending the LGBTQ+ community in 1992 following an anti-gay voter referendum in Colorado.

Second graders should be spending their time practicing subtraction and building baking soda volcanos. But our 8-year-old client – we’ll call him James – instead learned how to bathe in a communal sink and take two bus lines to get from a makeshift homeless shelter to school. In Episode 8: Four Walls and a Door, Partner Allison Holt Ryan and Senior Associate Lance Murashige describe the conditions where James, his grandmother, and other homeless families stayed during the “polar vortex” that swept through D.C. in 2014. On top of the already traumatic impact of homelessness on the child, James was sleeping on a gymnasium floor next to strangers, using a shared bathroom with men he didn’t know, with no alternative but a laundromat or a bench in Union Station. With our help, James and other homeless children were provided with the safety and stability of private rooms on freezing nights. Also in this episode, Senior Counsel Stan Brown and Chava Brandriss, a partner at Davis Wright Tremaine, discuss the 13-year legal battle to eliminate an exclusionary zoning ordinance on Long Island that intentionally and unlawfully discriminated against people of color.
Despite a host of landmark court rulings and legislation aimed at dismantling institutional racism, "de facto" segregation persists across many neighborhoods, schools, and communities.
In Episode 7: Desegregation, we take a look at two major civil rights wins from the late 20th century. Pro Bono Senior Counsel Joe Hassett and Jack Keeney, General Counsel at the Association of Zoos and Aquariums, describe their success on behalf of the residents of Woodland Village. The federal housing community was built during World War II for Black Navy workers and their families on the banks of the Potomac River in blue-collar southern Maryland. Woodland Village remained segregated from the surrounding, all-white town of Indian Head and, until we intervened, for decades was denied access to water, sewer, and cable.
The pair discuss a second discrimination case during that time – this one much closer to the nation's capital. The firm represented the NAACP in seeking a remedy for the failure of Prince George’s County schools to truly desegregate, as it had been ordered to do in 1972.
In the United States, the gap between rich and poor is the largest it’s been in decades. Systemic issues within our institutions and legal systems serve to exacerbate conditions that make it nearly impossible to bridge that gap. In Episode 6: Economic Justice, we take a look at three early cases from our Community Services Department.
The Honorable David Tatel and Allen Snyder, special counsel at the Children’s Law Center, join us to discuss a business boycott in Mississippi, which prompted an antitrust lawsuit that threatened the very existence of our client, the NAACP. In the second segment of the episode, Mr. Snyder and The Honorable John Ferren recall the critical role we played in preserving the federal Community Action Program – a centerpiece of President Johnson’s War on Poverty to empower local residents to address pressing needs in their own communities. Finally, Judges Ferren and Tatel remember undertaking the formidable task of getting the Legal Services Corporation up and running from scratch in just 90 days. Decades later, LSC remains a vital source of funding for nonprofit legal aid programs across the country.
In our last episode for the year, Andrew talks to Nigerian media entrepreneur, journalist, political activist and motivational speaker, Adebola Williams. He is the Group CEO of Red for Africa, Africa's largest portfolio of youth-focused media brands which include Red Media Africa, Statecraft Inc, The Future Awards Africa and YNaija.com to name but a few.
Listen as they discuss Adebola’s involvement in African elections, the power of social media – both positive and negative – as well as and the importance of promoting the right messages to propel ‘Brand Africa’ forward. He also paints a picture of his role in inspiring youth advocacy as a GenU Global Champion and why mobilizing Africa's youth can help shape a more progressive future. He goes on to share his views about the opportunities presented by COVID-19 for the continent, and the message he believes can inspire younger audiences to create the “ new paradigm” demanded by the Africa Union.
All of our pro bono cases can have a significant and lasting impact on the lives of our clients. But when we represent someone who has been sentenced to death, the stakes couldn’t be higher. In Episode 5: Facing Execution, Senior Counsel Pat Brannan and Senior Associate Liz Lockwood discuss their experiences in representing two death row prisoners: John Ferguson and TaiChin Preyor.
Mr. Ferguson, who was executed in 2013, suffered from severe mental illness. His last words from the death chamber were, "I am the Prince of God and I will rise again." He had no rational understanding that his execution would end his life.
Despite inadequate legal representation prior to our involvement, Mr. Preyor was executed in 2017. Among other shortcomings, his lawyers had failed to present mitigating evidence of a traumatic childhood marked by physical and sexual abuse, and had used Wikipedia to conduct "legal research."
In 1997, a young Navy wife was raped and murdered in Norfolk, Virginia, and four sailors were pinned for the crime. The "Norfolk Four," as they were later known, were arrested and subjected to hours of aggressive, threatening, and coercive interrogation at the hands of Detective Robert Glenn Ford.
In Episode 4: A False Confession, Derek Tice speaks with his pro bono lawyer, now Magistrate Judge Deborah Boardman, about the fallout from those interrogations. Tice and his fellow seamen each confessed to the crime, despite the fact that all four were innocent. We began representing Mr. Tice after he was wrongfully convicted and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Today, Mr. Tice is once again a free man.
The Sixth Amendment guarantees criminal defendants the assistance of counsel. Those who can’t afford to hire a lawyer are assigned one – usually, a public defender.
In Episode 3: Criminal Justice, Miami-Dade Public Defender Carlos Martinez and Hogan Lovells Partner Al Lindsay discuss their successful challenge to a criminal justice system that, due to crushing caseloads, made it impossible for the Public Defender’s office to fairly represent the accused.
Our lawyers continue to seek justice beyond a criminal defendant’s day in court. We advocate for the fair and humane treatment of the incarcerated. Hogan Lovells Senior Associates Katie Ali and David Maxwell describe the abhorrent conditions for death-sentenced prisoners in the Commonwealth of Virginia prior to our intervention and talk about the use of automatic and permanent solitary confinement within the context of the Eighth Amendment.
On a single day in 1999, nearly 10 percent of the Black population in Tulia, Texas, was arrested in a drug sweep. The raids were based on the word of a single white undercover officer with a checkered past.
In Episode 2: Tulia, Cate Stetson explores what happened that day and the fallout that ensued over many years. Two lawyers on the frontlines of that battle, Des Hogan (Head of our Litigation, Arbitration, and Employment practice) and Mitch Zamoff (Litigation Program Director and professor at University of Minnesota Law School) retell their first-hand experience bringing justice to those wrongfully imprisoned.
