International law firm Dorsey & Whitney announced that former Washington Governor Gary Locke has joined the firm as a senior advisor. Locke is a former U.S. Ambassador to China, and Secretary of Commerce under President Obama. Locke will have a strong focus on assisting Dorsey's international practice. As the Governor of Washington from 1997 to 2005, Locke was the first Chinese-American governor as well as the first Asian-American governor in the continental U.S. He is currently chair of Committee of 100, an organization for Chinese Americans focusing on civic engagement, public policy, arts, culture, and philanthropy. Dorsey opened its Hong Kong office in 1995, its Shanghai office in 2001, and its Beijing office in 2015. Dorsey's U.S.-China focused team works across continents, helping international clients navigate business in China and helping Chinese companies achieve their business goals in the U.S., Europe, and around the globe. Dorsey conducts business on behalf of Chinese clients in the U.S. from across its U.S. national platform, with its U.S.-China practice headquartered in New York, and in Europe from its London office.
