Troutman Pepper Hamilton Sanders LLP has augmented its legal team with the addition of Pete Jeydel as a partner. Jeydel will be joining the firm’s sanctions and trade controls practice group based in Washington, D.C., according to the firm’s announcement. Jeydel’s legal expertise concentrates on U.S. export controls, economic sanctions, and a range of related issues that are gaining prominence under current regulatory environments.
