- 'The sanctions and export controls practice at Steptoe is top-notch. Steptoe does an amazing job applying the law to real-world commercial transactions and has helped us significantly in terms of structuring transactions to take into consideration the latest sanctions developments. Partners are very dedicated, always available, and extremely responsive.'
- 'Let me single out Alexandra Melia. I can’t recommend her highly enough for advising on sanctions and export control regimes across multiple jurisdictions. Her main source of distinction is not just her deep knowledge of the law as it relates to sanctions and regulatory compliance, but her uncommonly good ability to apply that knowledge to commercial realities.'
