Experience

Represented the government of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on various post-WTO accession trade barrier issues, including USTR’s “Special 301” (intellectual property) process.  We obtained removal from the Priority Watch List and then complete “delisting” of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia over the course of four years.  We also advised on all aspects of the process, working closely with the lead Saudi government official and U.S. stakeholders, including the leadership of all major U.S. industry associations focused on intellectual property issues (PhARMA, IIPA, MPAA, etc.).
