DAC Beachcroft Hires Three Cyber Partners From RPC

The appointments make DAC the only law firm with two UK Chambers and Partners-ranked lawyers for Cyber and Breach Response.

Hans Allnutt, Head of Cyber at DAC, said the hires form part of strategic investment in a practice that serves clients across the Americas, Asia Pacific, Europe and the Middle East. He pointed to growing client demand for technology errors and omissions expertise, regulatory investigations, and privacy litigation. "We are thrilled to have Richard, Dan and Rachel on board to respond to these demands," he said.

Breavington said cyber risk continues to evolve and insurers face pressure to deliver swift, coordinated responses across multiple jurisdictions. He cited DAC's cyber specialists in most of its international offices and the practice's reputation in insurance expertise. "We're all very much looking forward to being part of that team," he said.
