Based in London, Alex DiMeo is an Associate in Mullen Coughlin’s Incident Response practice group. As an organization’s Breach Coach after a real or suspected data privacy and security incident, Alex coordinates the multiple incident response stakeholders during investigation and response into the incident. After the incident has been contained, and using technical evidence provided by third-party digital forensic investigators and data miners, he then counsels the organization on any legal, regulatory or contractual obligations that may stem from the incident. This includes individual, business partner and media notification, as well as law enforcement and other regulatory body reporting. He also assists organizations in responding to both formal and informal regulatory investigations and follow-up questions regarding data privacy and security incidents.

Immediately prior to joining Mullen Coughlin, Alex was a secondee at a UK-based, international specialty insurance provider as a Claims Adjuster. There, he gained an appreciation of the insurance claims process and instructed a group of panel law firms, adjusters and other experts to ensure the best outcomes for his clients. This is experience he uses when liaising with cyber insurance carriers and brokers during the incident response process.

Alex also has extensive litigation experience, previously as an associate attorney with two full-service law firms. As a former Legal Assistant for a logistics/supply chain company, Alex worked on several projects related to data privacy. This included researching complex international data privacy legal issues, contract and service agreement review for data privacy obligations and trained employees on internal data privacy policies and procedures.

Alex is a member of the International Association of Privacy Professionals (IAPP) and is a U.S. Certified Information Privacy Professional (CIPP/US). He is also a member of the Cybersecurity and Data Privacy Committee of the Pennsylvania Bar Association (PBA).
