We advise on export compliance and licensing related to Export Administration Regulations (EAR), International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) regulations, trade sanctions and embargoes administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) compliance and representation, and Antiboycott compliance.

International Trade Remedies
Our attorneys advise Fortune 100 U.S. producers, international trading companies, foreign trade associations and numerous corporations worldwide on complex problems involving unfair pricing internationally (dumping), injurious subsidies cases (countervailing duty cases), general relief from imports using quotas or increased duties under escape clause provisions of U.S. law (section 201 and section 421 of the Trade Act of 1974), intellectual property violations litigated at the U.S. International Trade Commission under section 337 of the Trade Act, issues regarding surges of imports under the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP), and anti-circumvention and scope issues arising from duties or quotas.
