Bennett Jones LLP
Among Bennett Jones LLP’s international strong suits, the firm is arguably best known for its signature oil and gas expertise and its broad regulatory offering. In terms of its capability in the latter sphere, it is particularly well placed to handle multi-jurisdictional competition issues, and trade and investment matters, where it can utilize its prominent domestic groups as well as its Washington DC-based team. Notably, former Competition Commissioner Melanie Aitken sits in DC and is sought after for her competition and foreign investment expertise. The group also maintains a New York office, which is steered by corporate and securities partner Gordon Cameron.
