Testimonials
Collated independently by Legal 500 research team.
- 'Hogan Lovells are well-informed and have exceptional analytical capabilities, even when it comes to newly enacted legislation. They are able to leverage their existing knowledge and expertise to analyse such legislation, and based on my experience so far, their analyses have been very thorough and precise. They approach issues not only from a strict legal perspective, but also provide business-oriented advice, understanding that the legal department in a business context must take a risk-based approach.'
- 'The team I worked with, led by Anthonia Ghalamkarizadeh, was extremely responsive and sensitive to our need to finalise our analysis in a short amount of time. They were very flexible, attentive, and easy to work with.'
- 'Anthonia Ghalamkarizadeh’s grasp of our business activities and operations was exceptional. She quickly understood the key issues and asked targeted, insightful questions that allowed her to contextualise our query within the specifics of our business. Her analysis was precisely aligned with the facts we provided, which I consider extremely important. Additionally, Anthonia’s knowledge and understanding of the AI landscape is truly unique. Her ability to apply her deep understanding of how the EU and its member states function was invaluable in assessing regulatory risks.'
