New York’s ex-chief Internet enforcer joins law firm
Kenneth M. Dreifach, former Internet bureau chief in the Office of the New York Attorney General, has joined the New York office of law firm Sonnenschein Nath & Rosenthal LLP as a partner and member of the information security and Internet enforcement group.
During his five years at the New York Attorney General’s office, Dreifach oversaw the initiation, litigation and settlement of enforcement actions involving spyware practices, data privacy, spam, online gambling, credit card and e-payment practices, online auction fraud, identity theft and other practices.
He also worked closely with the Federal Trade Commission and other state attorneys general on policy and enforcement, leading several multi-state groups. He has drafted numerous New York state bills regarding spyware, spam, ISP practices, rebate practices and other consumer protection issues.
“Ken is one of the country’s leading Internet lawyers in the government sector,” said Michael Barr, managing partner of Sonnenschein’s New York office. “He brings tremendous experience to help our clients with the challenges they face in this growing area of the law.”
