Zuzana S. Ikels

Zuzana Ikels finds protecting and defending clients to be the most important and rewarding aspect of being an attorney. She devotes herself to learning the details of the client's business and understanding the client's perspective. Drawing upon her experience litigating cases across a wide range of industries, she formulates and implements creative legal strategies and real-world solutions.

Her practice focuses on handling complex commercial disputes, with particular emphasis in healthcare litigation and the False Claims Act and Anti-Kick Back statutes, consumer class actions, and business disputes for technology and healthcare companies. She has also handled an array of intellectual property and contract matters for clients in the music, internet and retail and fashion industries.

Zuzana has an in-depth familiarity with complex, IT and Big Data infrastructures, from advising on electronic records and retention programs, litigation holds, privacy and customer consent policies, conducting internal investigations, devising sound and strategic and e-discovery discovery plans, and cutting-edge discovery motion practice. She frequently counsels clients on privacy policies and protocols related to disclosures, written authorization and “opt-in”/“opt-out” pop-up requirements, in conformance with applicable federal and state statutes and regulations. Through her in-depth knowledge of federal and state statutes and regulations governing privacy and security, the healthcare industry, and ecommerce, she devises creative and results-oriented legal strategies in high-stakes litigation.
