United States > International Trade > Customs, export controls and economic sanctions
(Hall of Fame)‘A true powerhouse in the world of sanctions,’ Hogan Lovells US LLP impresses with its ability to plug into its extensive global network, which includes Asia-, EU- and UK-based teams, to cover the waterfront on export controls and economic sanctions relating to ‘high-risk’ countries. The group’s deep bench in this sphere includes preeminent expert Beth Peters, who recently secured a ruling for ZTE that released the China-based multinational from a five-year probation term imposed in 2017 for violation of US sanctions. The ZTE work was co-led by Stephen Propst and trade and investment co-head Ajay Kuntamukkala, who is recognized for his experience in the life sciences, nuclear, technology and defense sectors. Other recommended names on the sanctions and export controls front include the ‘clear and practical’ Aleksandar Dukic, Anthony Capobianco and counsel Josh Gelula. On the customs side, Craig Lewis and Chandri Navarro are key contacts. The team also draws on the broad expertise of trade and investment co-head Deen Kaplan. Named attorneys are based in Washington DC.
