Foley & Lardner LLP has recruited Tad Ferris from Holland & Knight as a partner and co-chair of Foley’s Greater China regulatory practice in the Washington, D.C. office. He will participate in the Foley’s Legal Innovation Hub® for NextGen Manufacturers which will focus on global sustainable manufacturing issues.

Ferris has two decades of experience in regulatory and government affairs of global markets, especially in China and other developing economies. Before joining Foley, Ferris was with Holland & Knight since 2004 and was head of the firm’s China team.

Ferris has also provided legal advice to various United Nations organisations, banks and foreign government institutions. He is now a co-chair of the China committee of the United States Council for International Business (USCIB), as well as chair of the USCIB China-Environment Task Force.

"We are delighted to add an internationally recognised lawyer who is as accomplished as Tad to our multifaceted team," David Sanders, co-chair of Foley’s Transactional and Securities practice, said in a statement. "His specialised knowledge of Chinese legal issues will provide great value to our clients with significant interests in China and the Asia-Pacific region."

“Tad will be joining forces with Foley thought leaders in Shanghai and New York as part of our growing China team, building on the firm’s deep experience navigating Chinese regulatory issues and foreign direct investment in China,” Richard Florsheim, co-chair of Foley’s China practice, said.

The U.S.-headquartered law firm currently has around 900 attorneys in 20 offices, and has offices in Shanghai and Tokyo in Asia.
