Hogan Lovells International LLP

Hogan Lovells International LLP's competition expertise is housed within its IP, media & technology practice and covers the whole array of competition issues thanks to a thematically broad team and international network. Trade secrets and know-how protection are just as much part of the consulting portfolio as licensing agreements and client representation in proceedings before German and European courts. Its sector focus rests on technology and telecommunications, pharmaceuticals, automotive and consumer goods, although its client roster also includes players in the energy and financial services industries. Andreas Bothe leads the German team and regularly handles litigation relating to competition and trade mark law, with cross-border cases representing a particular focus. Anthonia Ghalamkarizadeh, who is particularly adept in the online space and co-head of the firm's gaming and esports group, made partner in January 2023.
