In the face of an ongoing scramble for talent among large law firms, Hogan Lovells has strengthened its ranks with the addition of a new energy transition partner, Michael Bonsignore. The highly skilled lawyer joined the firm from Clifford Chance, based in Washington, D.C. This move reflects Hogan Lovells’ stated aim to expand in what it sees as the “strategic priorities” for its growth: the renewable and energy transition sectors.
The competitive landscape in the area of energy law is evident by a notable string of recent hirings of energy partners in the capital region.
