Feb 3 (Reuters) - Amir Ghavi, who advises major technology and artificial intelligence companies, is joining U.S. law firm Paul Hastings to lead a new global technology transactions practice, the firm said on Monday.
Ghavi, who joins Paul Hastings as a New York-based partner, previously co-led the same practice at rival firm Fried Frank Harris Shriver & Jacobson.
His clients have included G42, Microsoft, Bloomberg, Snowflake, T-Mobile, Mistral AI, Cohere, Liquid AI, Palantir and Infosys, Paul Hastings said.
He advises tech companies, developers of AI foundation models and other companies adopting AI, in areas including intellectual property, litigation, product development, transactions, governance and regulatory compliance, the firm said.
Ghavi said part of his practice involves navigating the "interface between those building the technology, adopting the technology, and those seeking to regulate the technology."
Fried Frank said the firm wished him well.
