Hopson and Yvette Ostolaza. Detailing his experience working with Sidley on a World Trade Organization matter, Airbus’ Vice President and Head of Litigation and Regulatory Affairs, Karl Hennessee noted “what I deeply appreciate about the firm and what sets them apart from all of the competitors is a can-do spirit that achieves excellent settlements and verdicts alike.”
