Partner Kathleen W. Cannon was quoted in the Law360 article “Commerce Kicks Off Duty Probes Of Chinese Shelving Imports.” The article discusses how the U.S. Department of Commerce has opened a pair of investigations to explore claims that Chinese companies have sold steel shelving units in the U.S. at unfairly low prices and also received illegal government subsidies in a scheme that allegedly undercut the sales of domestic producers.

Inc., is represented by Ms. Cannon, partners Paul C. Rosenthal and R. Alan Luberda, and associate Grace W. Kim.
