About Richard
Richard Newman is an attorney who practices at Hinch Newman LLP. He completed his legal training before gaining admission to practice in multiple U.S. jurisdictions. That multi-jurisdictional admission has shaped how he approaches cross-border issues and regulatory variation in technology-driven industries.
Early in his career Newman built experience in matters that touch both law and technology. He is admitted to practice in California, New York, the District of Columbia and Nevada. Over time he gravitated toward cases and counseling that deal with online commerce, data protection and regulatory compliance. He practices from the firm's offices and often advises businesses that operate across state lines.
His work centers on privacy, data security, advertising compliance, e-commerce and cyberlaw. He counsels clients on data-handling policies, breach response processes and compliance with advertising and consumer protection rules. He also advises on contractual protections related to data transfers and vendor relationships. Much of his day-to-day practice involves translating technical issues into practical legal steps for in-house teams and outside vendors.
Newman maintains memberships in the International Association of Privacy Professionals and the Performance Marketing Association’s Advertising Compliance Council. He is also a member of the California State Bar Cyberlaw Committee on eCommerce, Data Security and Privacy. Those affiliations keep him engaged with current regulatory developments and industry practice. He currently practices privacy, data security and advertising compliance law at Hinch Newman LLP.
