Policies and statements
Please be aware that fraudulent actors have attempted to impersonate law firms and their personnel in an attempt to coerce unauthorized payments or steal sensitive or confidential information. These financial or phishing scams can take the form of email, text or social media messages and may employ the use of fabricated documents or contact information designed to mimic legitimate firm personnel.
Davis Polk will never ask for payments through messaging applications (e.g., WhatsApp), and we do not use personal email account services (e.g., Gmail) for firm business.
If you receive a suspicious message claiming to be from someone at Davis Polk, do not respond, do not click links or open attachments, and do not provide personal or financial information. To verify the authenticity of the message, contact us directly using the contact information on this website. Never use contact details provided in a suspicious communication.
While we take these matters seriously, we cannot prevent fraudulent actors from attempting to impersonate our firm and personnel. If you believe you are the victim of a fraud, you should notify the relevant authorities.
