    Kam graduated from Syracuse University’s College of Law in 2002 after winning awards in both legal writing and appellate advocacy. In law school, he was a member of the Justinian Honor Society, the Syracuse Moot Court Honor Society, the Tournament of Champions Trial Team, the American Trial Lawyer Association Trial Team, and the Latin American Law Student Association Moot Court Honor Society. Kam was admitted to the New York Bar in February of 2003 and the Maryland Bar in June of 2006.

    Cybersecurity Litigation Experience

    Served as a chief architect and lead counsel in the Bert Glaser v. AT&T, Inc. et al., Case No. 1:12-cv-00166, class action (which was subsequently incorporated into a national multi-district action—In Re: Carrier, IQ, Inc. Consumer Privacy Litigation, MDL No. 2330), wherein liability for statutory privacy and wiretap violations was asserted against Carrier, IQ, Inc.  and a number of mobile device manufacturers for the use of a software known as “IQ Agent”, which reportedly recorded, inter alia, the keystrokes, text messages, and passwords of mobile device users without their consent.

    Served as chief architect and lead counsel in Laura Maguire et al. v. Facebook, Inc., Case No. 5:12-cv-00807, class action (which was subsequently incorporated into a national multi-district action—In Re: Facebook Internet Tracking Litigation, MDL No. 2314), wherein liability for statutory privacy and wiretap violations was asserted against Facebook, Inc. for the use of persistent cookies to track the internet activity of Facebook members after they logged out (in violation of the terms of use) and of non-members who later became Facebook members (through the use of internet protocol addresses) without their consent.

    Served as primary researcher on the issues of whether the liability asserted against Carrier, IQ and Facebook could be extended to other defendants and whether any cyber liability insurance carried by any potential defendant could be triggered by the alleged statutory privacy and wiretap violations.
