In a significant development, K&L Gates has announced the inclusion of two new partners to its antitrust, competition, and trade regulation practice in Washington, as reported by Bloomberg Law. Nate Bolin and David Allman, the duo joining K&L Gates, come from DLA Piper, bringing a wealth of experience and expertise gleaned from their substantial legal careers.
According to the official announcement, Nate Bolin has a well-respected track record in advising on US export controls, economic sanctions, trade remedies, as well as customs and tariffs. His work also concerns the broader areas of national security and international trade. This combination of skills and exposure makes him an invaluable addition to K&L Gates.
David Allman brings national security law into the mix, having handled several high-profile cases dealing with foreign ownership and control, export controls, economic sanctions, and anti-corruption policies. This collection of specialisations gives K&L Gates an additional advantage in providing top-tier legal counsel.
The arrival of Allman and Bolin at K&L Gates denotes a strategic move by the firm, reinforcing its standing in the legal industry and promising an enhanced scope of services for their clients in antitrust, competition, and trade regulation sectors.
