Print bio

Ariel draws on her training as a certified information privacy professional (CIPP/US) to deliver sound advice to her clients while managing their risk.

Ariel Glickman counsels and defends clients on issues concerning incident response, data security, government investigations, user privacy, and online platform enforcement.

Ariel advises clients through complex data breach matters, assessing legal and regulatory risk, and coordinating compliance with breach notification laws. During a recent secondment as security counsel at a technology company, she liaised with engineers, product, policy, law enforcement response, and integrity teams to provide strategic legal guidance on end-to-end encryption, wiretapping laws, and data disclosure.

In addition, Ariel counseled clients in internal government investigations and inquiries conducted by the U.S. Department of Justice, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and U.S. Federal Trade Commission, and has prepared witnesses for both grand jury and trial testimony. Her extensive experience also includes protecting against account abuse on online platforms—including scraping, fake engagement, and spamming. Maintaining a robust and diverse pro bono docket, Ariel recently secured a fraud waiver for clients who were in removal proceedings to be deported, providing a path for their citizenship. She currently represents a client related to the violation of his civil rights under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, stemming from assault and battery on his person.
