Several media outlets, including the National Law Journal, Bloomberg Law and Law360, highlighted Antitrust and Competition Partner David Gonen’s arrival at Katten’s Washington, DC office. After beginning his career at Katten, David spent more than a decade as lead attorney in the Mergers I Division at the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).

Regarding what drew him back to Katten, David shared, "The FTC is a tremendous institution full of talented people, and I’m so proud of what my colleagues and I accomplished. At the same time, I'm ready for the next phase in my career, and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to return to Katten where I started my career. The firm's stellar corporate practice and thriving [mergers and acquisitions] platform provide a great source of potential antitrust work, and the commercial litigation and IP litigation groups have a deep bench of exceptional attorneys with experience in antitrust."
