There is no single federal law regulating the collection and use of biometric data in the United States. As the use of biometric technologies has increased, so has the legal risk. States increasingly seek to regulate its use and litigants eagerly test the contours of existing laws.

Our interdisciplinary team periodically publishes client updates and hosts events and webinars developed to help you understand the benefits, regulatory risks and latest technological developments associated with biometric identity verification.
