Strategic Alliances Hogan & Hartson offices are positioned in strategic locations, major business centers, and national capitals around the world. We draw from our local market knowledge and international capabilities to provide exceptional service and creative advice to our clients. In order to enhance these capabilities, we have formed the following strategic alliances:

Hogan & Hartson is a member of the Pacific Rim Advisory Council, a nonexclusive network of leading law firms with offices in important business centers in Asia and Latin America, including Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Chile, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, and Venezuela. Hogan & Hartson partner Raymond J. Batla, Jr. has been elected Chairman of the PRAC and will serve for the 2010-2011 term, effective January 1, 2010 through December 31, 2011.

Albright Stonebridge Group
Hogan & Hartson maintains a strategic affiliation with Albright Stonebridge Group and often works collaboratively with Albright Stonebridge to address clients’ needs, particularly engagements in markets marked by complexity. Albright Stonebridge was formed in June 2009 as a merger of Stonebridge International LLC and The Albright Group.

Former Secretary of State Madeleine K. Albright, former U.S. National Security Advisor Samuel R. "Sandy" Berger, and former Senator Warren Rudman lead Albright Stonebridge. Wendy R. Sherman and H.P. Goldfield, senior international advisor at Hogan & Hartson, will serve as Vice Chairs, and former U.S. Ambassador to Brazil Anthony S. Harrington serves as CEO. Berger and Harrington, former Hogan & Hartson partners, founded Stonebridge International LLC in 2001.

Albright Stonebridge is a leading international global strategy firm that helps clients navigate the intersection between business, finance, government, and civil society in markets around the world. The firm also provides clients with strategic advice, transaction support, crisis management, planning for corporate responsibility and citizenship, and analysis of privatization opportunities.

Albright Stonebridge is based in Washington, D.C., with a local presence in New York, Brussels, Beijing, Shanghai, New Delhi, and Sao Paulo.

The Law Firm of Salah Al-Hejailan
Hogan & Hartson entered into a strategic alliance with The Law Firm of Salah Al-Hejailan — the oldest and largest law firm in Saudi Arabia — in December 2004. The alliance expands upon a 20 year professional relationship between both firms. The combination of the resources of Hogan & Hartson together with the leading local and regional experience of The Law Firm of Salah Al-Hejailan provides a strong platform and support for our clients conducting business in and from the Middle East.
