Hogan Lovells US LLP’s standalone CFIUS practice is capable of handling complex cases that require filings, approval, and mitigation. The firm consistently advises US investors on foreign ownership issues, with start-up and early-stage technology companies being common clients. The team is regularly involved in CFIUS-sensitive industries, such as certain tech sectors, as well as aerospace and defense. The practice is operated out of Hogan Lovells’ Washington D.C. office, with former member of the Office of the Assistant General Counsel for International Affairs, Anne Salladin being a notable CFIUS expert. Salladin has advised foreign and domestic clients across various sensitive industries and jurisdictions, including some major Chinese acquisitions. Brian Curran has vast technical experience in the national security and export controls field, which positions him to advise on complex CFIUS-related issues in critical technology fields. Curran demonstrated this in his representation of data and analytical platform, Allstacks. Zachary Alvarez and Patrick Miller provide comprehensive support from associate level.
