NLJ Profiles Suzanne Kane Among D.C. Rising Stars

Akin Gump international trade partner Suzanne Kane has been profiled by National Law Journal as a 2021 Rising Star in Washington, D.C.

In the profile, Kane discusses some of her most pivotal client successes including securing important tariff exclusions for a major automaker regarding imported steel products used to manufacture vehicles in the United States, ultimately, saving the client of millions of dollars. Kane, who previously served as senior attorney-advisor at U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP), also represented a U.S. solar battery charger manufacturer in response to a highly complex CBP investigation regarding its compliance with tariffs and Antidumping and Countervailing Duties, tariff classification and customs valuation.
