Hogan Lovells has bolstered its international trade and investment practice by bringing on Mayur Patel as a partner in its Washington office. This development, announced on Monday, marks a significant hire for the firm, given Patel’s extensive experience in U.S. trade policy.
Prior to his new role at Hogan Lovells, Patel served as the chief international trade counsel for the Senate Finance Committee under Chairman Mike Crapo (R-Idaho). His tenure on the committee involved pivotal roles in both legislative and oversight initiatives, particularly during the Trump administration’s trade policy measures. This experience provides him with a unique perspective on the intricacies of U.S. trade policy which Patel is expected to leverage in his new position.
As highlighted by Hogan Lovells, Patel’s established relationships with senior officials in the administration and congressional leadership bolster the firm’s capabilities in navigating complex trade policy landscapes. This appointment is part of a broader strategy by Hogan Lovells to enhance its capabilities and client services in the rapidly evolving area of international trade and investment.
